Starting on May 27th, the pilot will operate as a regular transit service between Livingston and North Pointe bus loop. Calgary Transit will be testing an app-based, on-demand technology rather than using a traditional fixed-route / fixed-schedule service."

Anyone see if 8364 is showing anything special on its sign today for MAX Orange?

The city also posted some high res shots on the Stoney Transit Facility page:

Some nice pictures and video of the facility on the city's Twitter account: https://twitter.com/cityofcalgary/status/1105598608848515072 https://twitter.com/cityofcalgary/status/1105600793607004160 https://twitter.com/cityofcalgary/status/1105601473629564929

There's a new and very bright LED 'no right turn / TRAIN' sign at 4 Ave and 9 St SW for cars continuing onto 10 St.

Pretty common theme with most of the routes and stops they've added in, unfortunately.

Pretty neat! Love seeing stuff like this.

Yeah, speakers on the Arbocs have been being taped over for years now. I'm pretty baffled and disappointed it's still an ongoing issue.

Happened to find this at the siding adjacent to Dartmouth Rd last night:

Thanks for letting me know - unfortunately that's something HSR will need to fix on their side. On the topic of Hamilton - it seems the schedule info for the December 30 changes isn't available yet so only live bus locations with no trip/schedule info are showing. I've let them know and will try to get it fixed as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience!
