The LRT Observer

I take the LRT to work every day. I am creating a timeline of the strange YEG LRT story.

Outrageous

Hi YEG, due to twitter's recent API changes I can no longer retweet your traffic updates. This unfortunately means this account will no longer be active unless the API is updated in the future. Sorry for the inconvenience ☹️

When the big, puffy winter coat is pushing you off your LRT seat…

To the students on the LRT: Your backpack is not a person. Real people need a seat. Thanks! #yegtraffic

First things noticed on LRT after 2 years: hard seats replacing stains, masks & priority seats - am I allowed to sit there or do I just need to give it up when required?

[The LRT Observer @YEGLRTObserver]

Back on the LRT today after 2 years!

[The LRT Observer @YEGLRTObserver]

Since the pandemic started... #yegtraffic

[The LRT Observer @YEGLRTObserver]

Hardcore. 10+cm of fresh snow this morning. How do you even pedal?

[The LRT Observer @YEGLRTObserver]

Standing subject A had no concept of personal space ettiquitte. Moving hips and stretching right in front of sitting subject B. In short, when there is empty space - use it. Especially for LRT calisthetics. #yegtraffic #LRTtips

Ideal winter footwear for effective LRT standing balance. #yegtraffic

@takeETSalert Gonna tell my kids the Metro line always worked properly @YEGLRTObserver

[The LRT Observer @YEGLRTObserver]

Best way to tell if slides are a bad idea in the winter. Look to see if your feet are purple after walking in the snow. #yegtraffic

Someone farts on a crowded LRT. Do you:

Poppy LRT
Lonely seat, do not forget
Fill with memories

How do you feel about the Security guards at every #yegtraffic LRT station? I am now seeing two at some stations...

[The LRT Observer @YEGLRTObserver]

I often see an elderly person walk on to an LRT with plenty of empty seats, choose to stand and someone asks them to take their seat. #yegtraffic
