Hey @winnipegtransit the D 16 routes were already running late and stacked at 8am this morning. When are you going to fix this and get people too and from work downtown reliably?

Hey @Bell_MTS @idccomm is it company policy to block bike lanes when kids are travelling home from school when there is plenty of legal street parking available? Pretty bad behaviour.

Hey @winnipegtransit what’s up with your Peggo website this morning? It says there is an error when I go to pay, then says the transaction has already gone through (but it hasn’t) when I go back and try again. What’s the eta on getting this fixed?

Is the @cityofwinnipeg going to be doing a better job of maintaining the sidewalks on academy in the winter going forward? They are usually pretty impassible for anyone with mobility challenges.

I absolutely didn’t see stops being removed to this degree on the draft plans that were circulated. It seems like you are punishing neighbourhood that already supported transit commuting in this re-working.

Hey @winnipegtransit Are there really no stops on academy between Lindsay and Niagara under the new bus plan? Going from stops every 2 streets to stops every 6 on a feeder route is pretty ableist.
