Why Today's TTC Delay Was a Mystery to Many

The cause for today's delay on the TTC was to fix those quite, hard to understand speakers. TTC was planning on getting the trains out back after their repairs on time but was unable to after finding a cracked train at king station, trains were cancelled from Bloor to Union Station. Previously TTC had tried fixing the problem by sending emails and twitter alerts to passengers about delays, but this only works if a passenger can connect to the internet off their phone, and this is impossible in the tunnels. TTC hopes to put more display screens on platforms so that passengers can easily see if their are delays.


I think that TTC should decide to start to put display screens inside of the train itself, this way people can easily see if their are any delays as well place more screens outside not only on the platform but also outside of the entrances. Although we now how nice clear speakers in the trains with no background noise, and good quality it is only a matter of time until that also breaks down and another repair is due. Is it really worth the wait?
