G.A Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 How many are really on order for this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 So will the busses that run on the ion route have wraps this year? Or will they just say iXpress on the side? That will confuse people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transit 20 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 neither normal routing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transit 20 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 the ion buses will be the ex ixpress buses so the 215xx will be route expasion and replacement for the 530xx and the 22xx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2281 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 The intention is to interline ION with iXpress at Fairview, so logically they would use regular GRT buses to avoid confusion between the two. Logically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC60102N Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 They are only re-routing the iXpress to use the future ION stops in Cambridge. I don't believe there will be any signage at all or route name change until the streetcar hits the rails. This is GRT and the Region of Waterloo we are talking about... It must be done the slowest, stupidest and expensive way possible The intention is to interline ION with iXpress at Fairview, so logically they would use regular GRT buses to avoid confusion between the two.

It must be done the slowest, stupidest and expensive way possible Every topic in this subforum ought to be called "Whining about [subject]". According to y'all, regardless of the topic, GRT / Waterloo Region does it worse than anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpd618 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Second vote right here - we are just exposing the truth The truth of your cynicism, yes. The truth of how "GRT / the Region is the worst at X" requires some solid comparison to other transit agencies and municipalities. I've seen lots of complaining, but not much of that.

TC60102N Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Expand your horizons. There is Greyhound, GO, Coach Canada and rideshare programs to get you out the region for a day to see the comparison for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is Greyhound, GO, Coach Canada and rideshare programs to get you out the region for a day to see the comparison for yourself. Should I go to Hamilton and see how much better they are at growing ridership? Maybe I should go to Guelph and see how well their transit network redesign worked? Perhaps I should go to Toronto and see how long it takes them to decide to make any changes at all? There's plenty of cities doing some things better than GRT, but pretending that GRT is the worst at everything isn't correct and isn't useful.
