Holy
public transit, Batman! What did Durham
Region Transit do to that sign?
It
appears they added the stop number, Robin, which can mean only one thing,
namely, DRT has implemented real-time bus information. Quickly, Robin, launch the mobile Batbrowser
and point it at the DRT website!
You’re
right, Batman. There it is on the home
page!
Follow
that link, Robin, and enter the bus stop number.
We’re
in luck, Batman, there’s a bus due in ten minutes.
Continue
to monitor, Robin. I wonder if it’s
actually reporting real-time information or just the time remaining to the
posted schedule.
Look,
Batman, it’s now reporting the scheduled departure time!
Excellent,
Robin. Let’s see what happens as the bus
approaches.
Holy
chronograph, Batman! There’s the bus
now, and that’s what the website is reporting!
Just
as I knew it would, Robin. The citizens
of Durham Region now have real-time bus information to tell them when their
next scheduled bus will arrive.
Hopefully, the remaining DRT tools will be
rolled out in short order.
Holy
pax, Batman! GO Transit bus riders still
don’t have their real-time bus facility.
That’s criminal!
If,
Robin, you mean GO Transit management haven’t delivered on their promise of
almost three years ago, whilst burdening their customers with inflationary fare
increases year after year, then yes, that’s criminal.
Let’s
return to the Batcave, Robin. There are
some PRESTO matters that require our attention.
