  • I've been fortunate to have taken transit all over the globe. I"m talkin': Chicago, Toronto, India, Rome, Seoul, Singapore, Washington, Montreal, Vegas, Mexico, and the list goes on and on. So where does Calgary measure up in terms of its transit level? Here goes: - Calgary Transit is reasonably clean. - Calgary Transit is a comfortable ride, and I do like that it is one of the few cities still based on the honour system. Everyone is expected to pay for their ride and passengers are only seldom questioned when C-Train officers come aboard - The Calgary Transit line that runs from Crowfoot to Somerset is my preferred line - The Calgary Transit line that runs from downtown to McKnight/Westwinds is NOT my preferred line - The crowd on the Crowfoot-Somerset line is genrally welcoming and friendly - The crowd on the Downtown-Mcknight/Westwinds line is sometimes shady - During peak hours, the trains get uncomfortably packed, but that's the case in all cities and countries - The Calgary Transit fare is reasonable in comparison to other cities, coming in at $2.50/Adult. Plus it is transferrable in the same direction for a total of 90 minutes - definitely a perk. Complaints: - The Calgary Transit line could use some work in regards to reaching popular areas of Calgary. - Why does the train NOT go to the airport? Why is it not mandatory for all cities to have a train that commutes to the airport??? I know it's in 'the plan', but that's not good enough - Recently, all of the train stops downtown were renovated. Yes, they look pretty, but are absolutely useless. The giant clocks and the sheltering above are useless. I wish the city had used that money for something worthwhile. - The bus system needs to be more accessible. I don't want to have to go to Dalhousie station first to get to Edgemont. It doesn't make sense depending where I'm coming from. We need more busses that come more frequently and that go farther, just like other major cities on the continent. Overall, the transit system in Calgary is adequate for the city's size, however considering how fast Calgary is expanding, the city really needs to get on this! I know there are plans underway, but having the intent isn't going to cut it anymore. Let's get more busses and more train stops running...less talk, more action.
