I wish there was a way for you to let us know you’re running behind. Go Time is always inaccurate. Today for example, I called and it said five minutes. Thirty minutes later as I walk away to try a different bus and that’s when it scoots by. I walk to a different stop and see that bus is going to be here in five minutes again. “Oh sweet,” I thought to myself, “maybe I’ll have a bit of luck today.” WRONG. Twenty minutes later two of the same bus doing the same route show up. I get that traffic sucks, but come on. Missing an hour of work on a tight budget sucks. —A long time rider

Get a horse.
Ride a cowboy.
Well if you’re that concerned, be a ‘somebody’ and go buy a car and quit your fuckin’ whining!
Metro Transit, oh excuse me, Halifax Transit was supposed to have something that accurately told you when the next bus was scheduled to come years ago called Go Time? Still waiting on that one.
An empty bus is a happy bus!
Yours truly.
I think it’s time for reserved bus lanes and routes OR get rid of them altogether. Either way, there will be a lot less complaining.
People don’t know how to park their cars on a 45 degree angle on the ice banks so the buses have trouble getting through. Go Time doesn’t take that into account.
