They added some flex posts, but haven't touched the corner they made unsafe. Will they be adding more concrete protection to the south east corner to replace the one they removed? @shawnmenard.bsky.social #ottbike

Hey @mark-sutcliffe.bsky.social @glengower.ca your new GM doesn't seem to even know how many vacancies his agency has. Even after promising to reveal the number
@octranspo.com is just such an unaccountable shit show
You're very lucky @mark-sutcliffe.bsky.social that your poor treatment and disparaging remarks about the team's ownership didn't drive them out of the city
You're a failure

OC Transpo is temporarily reducing O-Train Line 4 weekend frequency to every 24 minutes through the fall to improve reliability while staffing is stabilized. Service may double to every 12 minutes for Cohere Centre events. Route 105 continues to serve the airport. In effect as of Sunday, June 28.
