I wonder if someone at OC Transpo just looked at the new Key Performance Indicators Webpage (
https://www.octranspo.com/en/about-us/transparency/kpis) and noticed that Lines 2 & 4 are actually LESS RELIABLE than Line 1 – based on the percentage of scheduled service provided. That should never be the case for trains that are much more reliable than the Line 1 trains have proven to be. Getting the tracks in shape, it seems that they just realized, is important for actually running those reliable trains
I am hoping that Mr. Leary is also looking to see what needs to be changes with the Line 2 tracks to actually run 8-minute service. Not that I think that they need to go that far, but it might enable them to run 10-minute service reliably. (Having the capability to run faster than 10-minutes service would give them some needed slack to run a RELIABLE 10-minute service.)
