she/her Trans, maker of bus maps. Biological female. Gatineau/Ottawa, en/fr
one thing I've enjoyed doing on the STO map (and part of the reason it's taking so long) is lovingly stenciling in every single street to fill in the empty space while trying to maintain readability. I think it produced something really really pretty <3

30 minute frequency on a train line that opened this year and cost $2 billion Ottawa transit is in a death spiral. Please email your city counselors to tell them we won't stand for this.

People will come within a foot of crumpling your body with their two ton death machine and then give you a lil wave like "ohhh haha. didn't see you there lil buddy !! my bad !!" as if that's anywhere near a proportional reaction. Normalize driving like you give a shit about pedestrians' lives.

immediately after I exited the metro a man asked me for a smoke and while I was handing it to him he said "t'es tres sexy" so I walked away without lighting it for him. Montreal is truly a magical place

Hey
@oc-transpohelps.bsky.social
now that there's 2 frequent buses stopping at Laurier/Waller as well as 2 separate intercity bus agencies, do you think maybe you could remove the locks on the perfectly good bus shelters from the original Laurier station? It's ridiculous that they're here & locked.

They should rename the transitway the 98-iway because that's the only goddamn bus that goes to South keys post nwtb (I was so mad about this I literally moved to Gatineau)

Working on a new system map based on the new transportation master plan. Since they didn't bother to name the third infill station b/w Leitrim and Limebank, I did it for them. Behold !! Unnecessary station <3

To give you an idea of just how fun to work with the vehicle locations API is, here's an animation I did last year of a timelapse of every vehicle's location over an evening rush hour. Pay attention to the right side and you can see buses going way off the map to run commuter lines (200s)

S/o to OC Transpo's vehicle location API, I will be capturing data on a set interval for the next several weeks. My goal is to use this data to estimate bus crowding, bus bunching, etc. and to see how that changes after the network redesign

Living in gatineau is so humiliating because why are the bus names so long like you're waiting for the 10 Hurdman? Cool I'm waiting for the 33 Parc-o-bus Freeman via Cégep Gabrielle-Roy

Hey Ottawa !! With the announcement of the Blair-Chapel Hill express shuttle along with the continued service for the Blair-Downtown express shuttle, I'm thinking a lot about express buses. So I made a map of some ideas I had for better commuter express service !!
