Comments on: TTC subway map using Google Maps, now easier to use http://crazedmonkey.com/blog/programming/ttcgooglemap-station-list.html Ian Stevens' weblog Mon, 08 Sep 2008 06:54:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5 By: Lou Israel http://crazedmonkey.com/blog/programming/ttcgooglemap-station-list.html#comment-59152 Lou Israel Sat, 30 Aug 2008 05:05:38 +0000 http://crazedmonkey.com/blog/uncategorised/ttcgooglemap-station-list.html#comment-59152 I cannot believe the "new and improved" TTC map is so lousy. With YRT/VIVA, I can accurately plot my trip and see what time I have to be at which stop to go where. I am trying to go to the CNE this weekend. There are NO timed stops other than the "next three buses", nor any way to judge what bus you need to be on so that you can make the transfer to the subway which will take you don't know how long etc etc. How useless. I was hoping this site would help in that area but no luck. Anyone with any advice? It won't help me for tomorrow but maybe for Monday when I go back. I estimate 2 minutes between subway stops (except 10 minutes from Eglinton West to Dupont) but as for bus routes I have no idea. Helpppppp!!!!

The green stations are on the Bloor line, the red on the Yonge-University line, the purple ones are on the Sheppard line and the blue ones are on the Scarborough LRT.

I'm probably going to be blushing when I read your answer to this question: what is the meaning of the colour-coded bars on the station names?

Is this one of the most popular cities in the world or some third world country?? You Mr Crazed Monkey need to get paid by TTC. I'm referring all my contacts to your site for a route map from now on. Well done that monkey! :D As Diane’s pointed out re TTC’s own website which is very old school in it’s approach to information delivery (text based timetables in 2008??? c’mon!
