Kerr-Eastlake Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 On September 17, 2016 at 9:21 AM, leylandvictory2 said: The arrow driver is most likely doing a crew called order as directed. Meaning the driver can be put on any surface route. If the arrow driver is indeed doing ot he had to use the bus from birch mount. Not true at all. Operators doing overtime are allowed to keep the bus they are driving if they are supposed to run the bus into the garage after their shift anyways. Makes more sense to keep the op in the same bus then to have them take theirs back to the division, get in their car to drive to another division to take another bus out.

T3G Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 They should be. If they're not there, try the south parking lot by the Monsignor Fraser College, where I've seen them before as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The City is doing some major watermain work on Manse road. The diversion used to make the buses to go all the way to Morningside and Coronation Road. They are building new town homes on the west side of Manse Rd at Hainford St, where Heron Park Public School used to be. As a result, they have closed Manse Rd there for about 3 weeks now in order to connect the new development to the watermain underneath Manse Rd. Seeing as how they started a week late and it looks like they are still working I wouldn't be surprised if the closure continues into next week. Also, I personally have never seen 86D use the Morningside detour that is posted on the TTC's website, they've been using Homestead since day 1.

leylandvictory2 Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 At first it depends on the supervisor. On the day I drove 86D on spareboard, they told me to go straight on Cornation Street until I hit Morningside. I guess passengers are complaining so they rerouted to Homestead instead. Even the ttc website said the bus will go all the way to Morningside http://www.ttc.ca/Service_Advisories/Route_diversions/86_waterservice.jsp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
