Does anyone in #Ontario know why the PID’s at all GO Transit station bus loops *never* actually show any bus arrival/departure info? It’s only ever ads which are, to be perfectly clear, NOT helpful when it’s -20C and windy and I’m just trying to get home. #Toronto #ONpoli #GOTransit #TransitTO #TO
Because GO Transit and the 905 transit agencies like to pretend the other doesn’t exist?
I did an entire 2 year research masters on how much they like to operate as if the other doesn’t exist.
I developed a metric using GTFS static of realtime data and OpenStreetMap (OSRM) to calculate the percentage of transfers between GO Trains and connecting (suburban) buses happen in a convenient timeframe which is not too tight or too long of a wait. And then plotted daily averages.
