@OC_TranspoHelps Riders don’t need comments on specific employees. Transparency on issues affecting ridership and maybe an apology could be nice?

@OC_TranspoHelps been driving in circles for the last 20 minutes on 14 St-Laurent because the bus driver first said he didn’t have the detour information, then said the detour information changed. I’m now further from my destination then when I started my trip

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_TranspoHelps Great! What can I expect to happen after that?

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo Been driving in circles for the last 20+ minutes on 14 St-Laurent because the driver first said he didn’t have the detour info, then said it changed. Bus is full of people wanting to go to the parade. This is unacceptable

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@_MarkSutcliffe this is what transit users have to deal with. Even if I wanted or could afford a car, parking lots downtown are full and many aren’t even letting people on wait lists.

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_TranspoHelps 6 Greenboro didn’t show up at stop 6402 at 4:50, and info is saying next one isn’t showing up until 5:20. Are people supposed to be fine with two cancellations of one of the busiest buses during rush hour with no notification?

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

No buses for 40 minutes and then this, even though at least three 9 Rideau’s went past in that same time frame?! People of Ottawa deserve better

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_TranspoHelps can you confirm when the next 14 St. Laurent is scheduled to come to stop 2556? Transit app isn’t showing anything, I haven’t received text cancellation notifications, but the website is saying 8:58. I’ve been waiting since before 8:15. This is unacceptable.

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

more cops doesn’t automatically mean less crime. support for vulnerable individuals, better healthcare (including mental), supporting youth - that reduces crime and poverty.

Premier Doug Ford has just announced free tuition at the Ontario Police College. The current cost of tuition for this three-month course (mandatory for all new officers hires in police forces across the province) is $15,450. #onpoli (photo ⁦@OPP_News⁩ )

@OC_Transpo gates at Lyon aren’t opening for presto users - it says “already tapped” and won’t open when tapping the card

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo the 17:27 14 Tunney’s Pasture at stop 7596 was showing as arriving at 17:29 (real time) and now nothing is showing up. Was it cancelled right before it was supposed to show up?

[Jeremy R. Hansen @Astro_Jeremy]

Just announced – I am honoured to represent Canada as a member of #Artemis II on the first crewed test flight of the Orion spacecraft around the Moon.

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo Was the cancellation notification cancelled due to resource issues?

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo been waiting since 8:16 for the 14 Tunneys Pasture at stop 6663. No updates for cancelled buses (8:25 10 Lyon at stop 6879 also didn’t show up, and didn’t wait for me and another passenger to cross the street before driving away)

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo I have an appointment. I need to know if the bus is coming or if I need to pay for an Uber to get me there on time

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo Is the 7:34 14 St-Laurent at stop 2556 cancelled or running late? “Please allow extra time for your travels” how can I when I don’t have accurate info to plan with?

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo The 6 Rockcliffe at 7:59 didn’t show up at stop 4104 - no cancellation notification or anything. Why tell people to plan ahead during weather events if you don’t give them info to plan with?

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo Is this accurate?

[julia filiplic @madeupengineer]

@OC_Transpo Don’t apologize for the inconvenience, apologize that you didn’t notify riders. Was the 8:04 also cancelled? People have been at this stop for 20+ minutes
