Thanks for fighting the good fight Eric!

I really miss the 95 man i really miss the 95.

_double_ articulated *battery* electric *_TROLLEYBUS_*

1:20 3:25

Modest size. As a Swiss citizen, I can say that Zürich is the biggest city and it's far from modest. :) Hopp Schwiiz! :)

Hello, I work in the field of driving a big bus. I travel long distances. I have enough experience in this field. I would like to work. Thank you

Need bus service from South Surrey Park & Ride to 22nd St. Station

0:35 That must have been such a sorrow for his wife, Frau Sorg...

Need to update because of COVID

wait they make trolleybuses with poles that can be moved without getting out of the bus??? That is rad bc in Seattle if the poles come off the wires or if the buses have to reroute, the driver has to stop the bus, get out, and manually put them back up

RIP 95 BASELINE

Imagine how hard it is to drive those double articulated trolleybus

We need those trolleys in London !

Thanks, this is very much interesting information. Zurich transport system is awesome.

Herdman station looked better 7 years ago, now you can’t even walk properly since LRT 😩 so many people

Thanks! It's a great video!

...

thanks for the footage!

Every time I go to Ottawa I'm shocked by the number of buses on the streets... Ottawa is literally chocking under buses. Good move by the city to finally built a subway.

Despite some mild "BRT creep," this looks like one of the nicer North American systems I've seen. That makes me doubly curious about why they are apparently replacing it with a light rail system (or "light metro" system, if you like). Was LRT deemed to have better carrying capacity? Were the buses or road surface requiring too much maintenance and creating a budget drain? I would love to hear from someone who can give an informed comment on this.

A small piece of history here. The path that poster rode on this video from downtown through Rideau - Hurdman - St.Laurent - Cyrville Road - Blair is now a history. The entire path has been tore down for LRT development. When it re-opened again in 2018, it will certainly has a different look. This video will serve as a piece of valuable memory for some of us who commuted daily using the buses through this Transitway.

I'm still skeptical about the LRT. I can see some advantages to it but I rather like having a local bus (86 Baseline-Elmvale/Southvale) that can get me more or less door-to-door from my house (~100 metre walk to the closest bus stop) to downtown (or beyond). I'm not particularly relishing being forced to switch modes of transportation at Tunney's Pasture. I still wish Ottawa would have built a bus tunnel to connect the east and central/west parts of the Transitway.

I'm guessing that the small part of the transitway in Between Laurier and Campus is going to be where the light rail will enter/exit into/out of the LRT tunnel.

Nowadays, the highfloor buses are all retired, luckily, Ottawa kept 3 historic buses in their collection!

Ben, It is worth noting that the city that has probably done the most for transit priority, Zurich Switzerland, has mainly narrow road right of ways. Making space for good cycling and transit facilities is easier when you start with wide road right of ways, but it is still a matter of priorities. If the private automobile is your top priority, then you will allocate most of the road space to the private automobile.

fine when your roads are 70 yards wide!

I don't know that much about the LRT, so am not sure what to say other than it sounds like a fairly standard project. I hope it turns out well. I produced this video largely because the Ottawa BRT system is/was so unusual and misunderstood.

You didn't mention our LRT now under construction?
