@eddiehosa @TTChelps @TTCchair @bradTTC We have quite aggressive transit priority signals in Toronto. Looking to do more.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@socks88 Sorry - just getting this now. Are you subscibed to e-alerts? Here's some info http://t.co/EKxMeHfD

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@kylebap Best option for when you accidental wander into the friendzone is to break off all contact for 1 year. Try again later. 'struth.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@yipdennis Thanks. Been following live each morning

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@eddrass Okay - thanks. It's city property/asset but we provide appropriate pressure when we can.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@stormcrest5 @TTChelps @metromorning Yes - regular meetings and CLP provides feedback/advice on both short / long term initiatives.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@squideye Correction. We popped about 514m on December 28th so a bit more than that.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@jnfrarnott Tough situation and I'm sorry. Did you feel threatened? What would you do in another public space?

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@bobbrentto @larrylarry Not overly agressive or misguided at all that.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@bobbrentto @larrylarry The only ones we've done recently relate to a direct impact - ie. put rubbish in the bin to help reduce delays

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@michaeloliveira Okay - thanks. Will give that some thought.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@michaeloliveira So at 10am we are leaving peak and taking vehicles out of service. Operaters work a split shift and come back for pm peak

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@larrylarry How did they measure success?

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@michaeloliveira @TTChelps So coming out of service at Connaught (ie. Russell carhouse)?

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@squideye About 502m.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@squideye Yes. New record. We carried >513m linked trips in 2012. Projecting >520m for 2013. More service than ever before.

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@larrylarry Interesting but I've never seen anything that indicates these sorts of campaigns have any impact. Know of anything?

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

@miroslavglavic Yup. First underground train ran between Paddington and Farringdon on January 9th 1863. First public trip on the 10th...

[Chris Upfold @TTCchris]

Happy 150th to London Underground today. Wishing former colleagues another great year via @TfLOfficial.
