Shout-out Shawn Menard, city councillor for the Glebe, doing the most Glebeite thing he can: argue with people on Reddit and say they're insulting him when they're just calling him out on his shitty decisions regarding bus lanes on Bank St

I can't stop looking at this photo by @bdmclarnon.bsky.social taken at Britannia Beach during tonight's mesmerizing sunset. Beautiful and violent, peaceful and threatening. Sigh.

Wow! I got off work early tonight and couldn't stop wishing I was at Britannia. Really hoping I'll be able to get out there again soon.

I swear the only command I did last night that could've possibly caused this was a quick [apt autoremove], but why the fuck would that nuke Cinnamon 😭😭😭 Got it reinstalled btw don't worry I'm just left absolutely bewildered

The City of Ottawa is leasing some REM units to see if they hold up better to get Stage 2 East back on track, and the first delivery is tonight at Montreal stn at 11pm. Issues with platform height are ok because they are retrofitting with surplus wheelchair lifts intended for Siemens Venture cars.

Remember the last ice storm that crippled LRT, and the trains that got stuck trying to remove stuck trains? All the discussion about buying a diesel rail tug? Well, they bought one - and it's adorable. Thanks for the vid @railfans.ca. youtu.be/vDNLkwUD_3Y?...

There's no longer any question: it's time to compensate transit riders for what they're going through. These pictures are heartbreaking - people going to evening shifts, home and family, class.

I'll pass on a hold-the-date. Thanks @railfans.ca and @bettertransitottawa.ca for talking transit data with me on February 2. Notez bien cette date. Merci à @railfans.ca et @bettertransitottawa.ca pour nos échanges sur les données de transport en commun le 2 février.

Please read the source I linked in my reply. Not Just Bikes is not a reliable source of information.

So far I've yet to hear of bearing issues on Finch West, so either less curves makes that big of a difference, or Alstom did something different on those trains. The issues Finch West is having are mainly switch, e-brake, and cab heating related. ie. Not the same as us.

Blaming inherent mechanical issues on the weather is extremely counterproductive, and it pushes a false narrative. The biggest incident on line 1, the Tremblay derailment, happened during a mild Fall day. No freezing cold. No snow. No beaming sun. No rain. Weather is not the problem here.

Griffin @celedonianerror.bsky.social · 22/01/2026

This issue has nothing to do with the weather. While yes, the train sometimes has issues in winter (we are not alone in that), the core problem lies at the wheel-rail interface. This means RTG and Alstom need to work together to fix the core issue of line 1, but the P3 partnership discourages this.

At pop-up hours today, Ajay Ramachandran showed me the data visualizations he's been working on using GTFS data on bus delivery. Bus by bus, scheduling block by scheduling block, Better Transit Ottawa has built an incredible tool to dig deep into trip delivery and reliability. bettertransitottawa.ca

Bank has the potential to be a beautiful community hub lined w/ local shops that people of all walks of life can access, but it's not. Currently it is a disorganized, unsafe mess because drivers think they're entitled to park directly in front of storefronts (which they usually can't anyways). 4/4

Griffin @celedonianerror.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

You should take a moment to look into what they did on Dufferin St in Toronto. There's some amazing before & after videos showing how not only do buses benefit from bus lanes, but so do cars, as buses no longer cause jams by having to weave in and out of the parking lane to access stops. 3/4

Griffin @celedonianerror.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

Because of how OC Transpo schedules their buses, a 2 min delay on Bank can easily snowball into a 15 min delay later down the line. This isn't just about travel time. It's about efficiency and making movements down Bank more predictable, easier scheduling, and therefore less cancelled trips. 2/4

Griffin @celedonianerror.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

I don't think you quite get it. We need to make as efficient use as possible of our small fleet while we work on healing it. How are buses sitting in stop-and-go traffic at all efficient? When a bus is late enough, trips start getting cancelled because there is NO BUS TO REPLACE IT. 1/4

3) Emergency bus lane and transit priority measures need to be enacted on key corridors to ensure our working buses are used as efficiently as possible. We can't have our limited bus fleet standing still in traffic.

Also saying, it might be worth getting in touch with some mechanics, and see what they have to say! I think it'd be quite compelling if, in future posts, you can say with confidence what exactly extra OC funding would go towards :)

Griffin @celedonianerror.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

One of the biggest roadblocks I'm sensing is the working conditions of mechanics at OC. While BTO has yet to get directly in touch with an OC Transpo mechanic, we hear time and time again from other employees that the mechanics are both underpaid and exclusively get overnight shifts.
