By all accounts, consistent daily rush-hour traffic is back this September, for the first time since the pandemic (March 2020) in my metro area.

Which is still surprising to some degree as we still have many (most?) Canadian federal public servants living in the area working from home more days than not.

I shudder to think what it will look like if and when most of them go back.

Transit ridership is apparently only still around half of pre-pandemic levels. Which contrasts with Montreal and Toronto which I believe have recovered to 70-80% of pre-pandemic levels.
