Bunching, slow spots and on time by hour

Three patterns from the last 28 days of live bus data: buses arriving together, the stretches where buses move slowest, and how on time buses are at each hour of the day.

How this is measured

Arrival times are the last live prediction made no earlier than 10 minutes before the scheduled time, not a recorded door opening.
Bunched: two buses of the same route and direction arrived at a stop less than a quarter of the planned gap apart. Each pair is compared with the gap the timetable planned between those same two trips.
Speed: the time a trip took between two timepoints, against the time the timetable planned. Segments shorter than 300 metres or 1 minute are not measured.
Days when the live feed was only partly recorded, or when its trip numbers did not match the timetable, are left out and listed. A day not yet measured is never shown as zero.
O-Train lines are left out: OC Transpo publishes no live train positions.
