YAY!!!

now calgary transit has a reason to raise fares yet again. how about imroving the existing service rather then making less buses available for the already overfilled routes.

when are they gonna do something that will actually help make it so you don't have to worry about a bus not stopping for you because its full, or not being able get on a train because it's full after stopping at the first 2 stations on its way to downtown. really all they do is make these big new plans without offering any ideas to fix it's current problems.

am i the only person still wondering why they haven't made the necessary renovations to add a fourth car to the lrt trains? they only have 1 station that can't accomodate it and that alone would make a huge difference to the congestion.

edit: btw..i don't regularly use calgary transit, but i would if it were a half decent service, as is you are just throwing your money away. we pay about the same as vancouver for their public transit and the service is leaps and bounds better.
