Ready an hour before work, no buses until after I start. #barrietransit #fixthisshit #idontwanttocab

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@Mayor_Jeff my 5A arrived 7 min late EMPTY. On hourly service, I have 1 min to connect to the 4A if the bus was on time. This needs to stop.

@SamsonsBamson I took 1 hr 45 min including a 30 min walk to get form Bayfield Mall to Big Bay Point / Prince William. Nothing meshes.

@barrieadvance @cityofbarrie @Mayor_Jeff someone in power has to start taking #transit complaints seriously. #barrie 1 hr 45 min trip today

@Mayor_Jeff 2/2 arrives @ Park Place she argued with another driver "I don't go there" (6B Park place). I'm now on bus 3 / 4 to get N. To S.

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@Mayor_Jeff I missed a 2B by 1 min @ Bayfield Mall & walked DT quicker than next bus. Once @ waterfront, I asked the driver when she..

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@GTAmissions1 yes it is brutal. I'd like to start a rider panel & propose new routing & timing.

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@GTAmissions1 who told you to stop posting?

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@Mayor_Jeff today we are only 6 min late instead of 30 but web, sms & phone predictions all not working & my driver almost zoomed by me.

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

There are bound to be ripple effect delays when every route travels the entire city. Each delay spirals the entire system out of control.

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@Mayor_Jeff this system is such a disaster. 25 min delay, late for work, same old + hourly service @ 7pm. What is being done to fix this?

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

Of course it doesn't work.. #barrie #betterbus

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@Mayor_Jeff I think you should run this new copy around #barrie it is much more accurate. #betterbus

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@mlogan05 I get that all the time. Trouble is with such an ass backward schedule, you have to make 100 requests just to plot your route.

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@mebbby @GRT_ROW agreed. We've all waited in -25 for busses operating behind or on hourly schedule #fixthiscrap #barrie #transit

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@meganeparent keep sharing your feedback. (hopefully) it will be considered. Sad thing is, I never see accolades for #barrie #transit #hmmm

[Better Barrie Buses @BarrieTransit]

@ShaneMoulton most of my friends think I'm absurd to take transit here. I come from "usable transit" too bad it doesn't work in #barrie
