TTC launches trip planner: Still in beta, still buggy

February 4, 2010

The Toronto Transit Commission (ON) launched a beta version of its new trip planner and is seeking user feedback. According to CTV Toronto, the application still has some bugs to work out:

Users posted messages online expressing frustration with a number of problems, with one person calling the tool “erratic” and “mediocre,” because it does not recognize some basic destinations like TTC stations…Other users said the planner provides unnecessary surface routes when subway routes will take them to their destination without the extra transfers.

According to the TTC website, modifications are under way and the agency plans to make its data publicly available when the application is finalized.  Link to full story in CTV Toronto.

Did they build the trip planner themselves or are they using a third party vendor?
