Tired of slow zones on the TTC? There could be more identified soon
The TTC is gearing up for another one of its annual track surveys meant to spot minor defects before they balloon into bigger issues, and help bring tracks across the transit system back to industry standard.

I’m not asking for a miracle. Just an e-bike that lets me escape public transit and make more weird little games. Help me (with PTSD and epilepsy) stop tanking bus rides and Ubers with no party healer.
The Tilikum Crossing bridge at the far point of my bike ride to downtown #Portland yesterday is named for a #PNW indigenous term translating to "The Bridge of the People". It's reportedly the largest car-free bridge in the USA, used for #transit (MAX light rail, streetcar and 4 bus lines), #cycling and pedestrian traffic. The bridge will celebrate its 10th anniversary in September along with the MAX light rail Orange Line it was built for. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilikum_Crossing

Aerial Rapid Transit ("gondolas") works in select places for point-to-point service. We can see examples of successful ART lines in Mexico City, Barcelona, and La Paz. One is being proposed for Irvine, another to connect Union Station with Dodger Stadium.

What is it you know about #transit today? Probably that urban transit is doing OK but commuter rail suffers from historically low ridership due to #WFH. But if that's so, why is one commuter rail system flourishing in, of all places, CA? Could it be because its trains are so nice? Let’s take a ride and find out. https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/openforum/article/california-public-transit-sprinter-rail-20281620.php
“I love riding the bus”: If you care about #transit, then share your affection with your friends. And not just in some dry public-policy way. Why do you like about riding in trains and buses? What do you experience that people in cars don’t? Not sure how to talk about your communal-transportation experiences? Here’s an example. https://www.atlantamagazine.com/news-culture-articles/a-love-letter-to-riding-the-marta-bus/
@Wen Again: That'll rather make one more suspicious as they have bulk access to all data ever posted on #AntisocialMedia owned by #US corporations.
Same restrictions apply for people in #transit or even partially entering #US #airspace!
On my ride in downtown Portland, this was my first time riding across the Tillikum Crossing bridge, which is exclusively for #transit, bikes and pedestrians. Also in the last picture is the USS Blueback submarine, on public display in the Willamette River at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). #Portland #cycling #PNW
Motor vehicle crashes are the third leading cause of fatalities in the USA. This new white nationalist attack against transportation modernization clearly shows how US Republican leaders want more Americans to be severely injured or dead. https://usa.streetsblog.org/2025/04/24/breaking-us-dot-is-coming-for-americas-dei-dollars-threatening-sanctuary-cities-with-pulled-funds #USPol #Urbanism #Transit #Fascism

TransLink is addressing overcrowding on one of our most overcrowded routes, route 23, by replacing community shuttles with 40-foot buses, increasing capacity by 50 per cent or more throughout the week.
