Public Transit in Toronto

The decent, the underwhelming and the downright entertaining!

1. 300 Bloor-Danforth Bus

Toronto, ON
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhoods: Bloor-West Village, Swansea

5/29/2009 First to Review

If you're looking for comedy troupe-esque entertainment, it can easily be had for merely $2.75 just by taking the all night bus along Bloor.

At around 1:55am when the subway stops running and until 6am when it starts again, an unwieldy and unreliable…More »

2. 63 Ossington Bus

Ossington Ave
Toronto, ON
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhood: Wychwood

12/14/2009 First to Review

This bus is surprisingly quick and much more convenient than you'd think for the TTC. Check THIS tip!

If I need to get to Queen/Ossington from Leslieville, it's actually faster for me to take a bus up to the Danforth subway line, go westbound on the…More »

3. 504 King Streetcar

King Streey
Toronto, ON
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhoods: Corktown, St. Lawrence, Downtown Core

Update - 4/30/2009

I'm updating my review based on today's kickass, no bullshit driver. He first wielded his powers when an inconsiderate guy boarded the streetcar listening to someone yell on a walkie talkie. The driver stopped at the light, stood up facing the back,…More »

4. 31 Greenwood Bus

Danforth Avenue & Greenwood Avenue
Toronto, ON M4J 1M6
Canada
(416) 393-3030

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhood: The Danforth

2/24/2010 First to Review

Remember when you were a kid and you'd hear the school bus drive by in the morning while you were still mowing down on your C-3P0s cereal (http://theswca.com/ima...), and you'd run outside completely dishevelled chasing after the bus, and it'd…More »

5. 510 Spadina Streetcar

Spadina Ave
Toronto, ON M5R 2T8
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhoods: University of Toronto, Downtown Core

4/8/2009 First to Review

By far the worst streetcar line in Toronto.

I read somewhere that the only two cities in North America that have streetcars are San Francisco and Toronto. Unfortunately this line, along with the 501 Queen, is a line that either needs a massive…More »

6. 506 Carlton Streetcar

Carlton St
Toronto, ON
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhood: Downtown Core

Update - 3/15/2010

The 506 gets my vote for Most Improved Streetcar Line of 2009. This route is a riot and in recent times I've never had to wait more than 15 minutes for it. They've definitely made some improvements to it.

I get on and off at unpopular stops so I…More »

7. 501 Queen Streetcar

Queen St
Toronto, ON
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods

Update - 8/11/2009

As of this moment this has now officially become the worst streetcar in the city. This review is solely an update about the current clusterf**k of a situation that is the detour in the east end between York and Broadview. Heretofore referred to as…More »

8. TTC - Toronto Transit Commision

1900 Yonge St
Toronto, ON M4S 1Z1
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant and Davisville

Update - 8/25/2009

Two kudos:

1. Thanks for whipping your 501 Queen streetcar drivers into shape (surely due to my scathing review two weeks ago), who are now diligently announcing detour stops and keeping passengers in the loop during the rerouting debacle.

2. Thanks…More »

9. 511 Bathurst Streetcar

Bathurst St
Toronto, ON
Canada

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhood: Casa Loma

6/30/2010

By far the worst streetcar in the city.

Worse than the eternally detouring 504.
Far worse than the arduous 120 minute trip from Humber to Neville Park 501.
Worse, even, than the 505 that suddenly stops running at midnight (an insider tip).
And much, much…More »
