Not worth making a fuss over something that happens at least once every few days If I may ask an actual question here, can a municipality legally ban certain types of busses? Obviously the 257 with artics isn't going anywhere, but would it be (theoretically) possible? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted April 21, 2019 Report Share Posted April 21, 2019 Hypothetically, yes. A municipality has enough authority to stop a vehicle type on their roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, the bus came off Steveston Highway westbound, made the left onto Coppersmith and then made the left turn into the Ironwood parking lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that it's just a bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Express691 Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 21:15ish, a train in front of me was short-turned to Edmonds. Dont know if that was a scheduled run or if it was an operational delay. In broader terms, it seems like frequencies have gone up on the Expo line: it's more noticeable in non-peak hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brando737 Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 2 hours ago, Thomasw said: Would you care explaining what happened and why a transit bus would be needed in this scenario Could have been a number of reasons. Without knowing the situation and it only being one bus my guess is either to take multiple students to the hospital instead of various ambulances, used for the injured to be in one central location for attention etc. Other uses for buses in emergencies can be shelter, blockade, transport of needed personal to an incident etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “Choose Your Ride” campaign has been ongoing for the past few weeks, in collaboration with various police departments, BCAS, along with TransLink. Explains why 9717 was there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasW97 Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Noticed trolley wires being re-installed right now at Nanaimo Station However, with the ongoing construction on Nanaimo St, was curious if the #7 would stay running w/ diesels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
