5 Days of LRT Delays


CBC television here in Ottawa is reporting that there has been a delay in the LRT system everyday this week. They seem to be happening far more frequently now that full operation has been underway for a few weeks. 

Whenever I hear about more system delays my thoughts go back to this video from September when the system was still more-or-less brand new, but even then was having issues. Mr. Manconi's tone, he's the top guy responsible for the LRT, explaining how he and his team will dismiss out-of-hand reported problems, is somewhat condescending, and seems to foreshadow where the system is today. "Let the system relax": it does seem a little too relaxed, and commuters are paying for it. LRT is getting a bad rep and, so far, deservedly so.
