@TTChelps hey yall, just curious of the current bus bay assignments at Kipling Station now that construction is finished. Have a great weekend!

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TransSee @PierreMarc72608 That would be greatly appreciated. Something along the lines of this

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TransSee @PierreMarc72608 I think what he means is that the text appears to be aligned to the left of the page so now the text is stacked vs before when it would be one line

@TTChelps Good afternoon. Any idea when the next 69A will be coming SB at Warden and Danforth Rd? I don't see anything on the tracking site

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@JackTattTran @rocketoperator @TTChelps The purpose of the barricades is to prevent underhoused people from taking up residence in that corner area. It puts operators in an uncomfortable (and potentially unsafe) position when they reach the end of the line and need to use said area.

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TransSee Thank you!

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TransSee What's up with the recent trip path disappearing like 1-2 hours after the bus signs out of the route? Was a helpful feature to see when a bus was last in service

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TransSee This feature goes away about 2 hours after the bus logs out of the route and can only be accessed through the vehicle history. Before today, the trip path icon would only go away if the bus hadn't been seen in service for 30+ days.

@peter101s @waynecheung29 There was no criminality to the incident. Believed to have been intentional.

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TTChelps probably not a bad idea to get some salt down on the platforms at Terminal B at Kennedy before someone falls. Definitely quite slippery.

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@augustAP12 When the operators move with purpose and not do 40 km/h the entire way to play games on the line, I'd go as far as to say it's more efficient than the SRT. I rely on this corridor daily and have been very impressed with the way the replacement plan has rolled out so far.

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@RM_Transit A bomb threat (the cause of the current shutdown) is so far out of TTC's control. I do agree with you, but in this particular case it has to be taken seriously.

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@augustAP12 @UrbanGuy0508 They've actually ordered a good number of second-hand buses(including one Artic) to increase service! Tho not a perfect solution, it's good to see the intention of creating more service.

@TTChelps bus 8434 on the 69 Warden South is driving around right now with a missing headlight cover. Must've been damaged at some point. I could dm a picture if you need

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@Nicole476 @TTCnotices @RootyRootbrian Train contacted a person at Runnymede

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@TTChelps The 174 Ontario Place-Exhibition is no longer listed on the TTC website and has also been removed from tracking apps. Is the route now officially cancelled?

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@Rootbrian_ @TTCnotices Sounds like north end of the northbound at Spadina. Male still hasn't come down but they're gonna resume service with an unsafe

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@PeterLu47017243 @TTCnotices Streetcar had a switch issue. It should be clear by now

[Mark | Transit_Insider @InsiderTransit]

@Rootbrian_ any mention of 3314 on the radio? Hopped on the feed too late to hear what was up with it
