Markers move between GPS fixes using measured progress along the published route. They pause after one measured reporting interval, on a measured standstill, or when evidence becomes stale.
Repeated problem stops: TERMINUS FREEMAN. These are highlighted from route-specific provider predictions compared with the timetable, with at least 60 eligible predictions over 3 days. They do not establish actual arrivals or a cause.
The line is the official route. Dots show published stops, buses seen now and stops named in current notices.
Buses we can see right now appear on the route below. A marker stops when we stop hearing from that bus. We never make up movement.

Span and median gap are computed from today’s official GTFS stop_times. They are timetable measures, not observed headways or a frequency guarantee.

No sign-in needed. A vote from a device that is not signed in counts a little less than one from an account, and a person who rates many routes counts a little less on each, so no one voice outweighs the rest.

Scheduled service and available evidence
Evidence period: Oct 2, 2026 – Oct 8, 2026
0
Trips in the published timetable marked cancelled without qualifying later matching vehicle observations in our archive. This does not prove the trip did not operate. Not counted: 2 trips with qualifying later matching vehicle observations. Trips with any notice: 2. 2 partial-capture days not counted.
16
16 of 365 trips with a usable feed window (4.4%) had no matching position.
These counts may overlap; do not add them. A missing position confirms neither cancellation nor a no-show.

Current feed. No explicit notice for this route in the current feed; this does not guarantee service. Observed: Oct 9, 2026, 5:16 a.m..
0 of 12 endpoint departures scheduled in the next four hours carried an explicit cancellation at the last check.
86 scheduled trips were excluded from the position check for feed or identity gaps.
Published position coverage: 349 / 451 (77.4%). This is not a delivered-service rate. 7 service days in this source.

Historical calculation: Oct 9, 2026, 3:49 a.m.
Method: explicit provider notices, archived trip windows and retained timetables. Predictions and positions alone do not prove that a bus ran or was missed.
2 partial-capture days not counted.
1 scheduled trips with counted cancellation notices from Fri, Sep 11 to Thu, Oct 8.
Not counted: 6 trips with qualifying later matching vehicle observations and 0 for trips not in that day’s timetable.
Hours with the most cancellations: 6 p.m. (1)
A cause is shown only when STO’s own alert for that trip gives one.
Did not come (no bus seen, no notice), last 7 days: 13 of 309 trips we could check.
Not measured yet. The daily count has not reached these days, so there is no number to show.
From the load level STO’s buses report, over the last eight weeks. A time is marked usually busy when at least half of the trips with a reading reached standing room or fuller.
No time of day was usually busy in the last eight weeks.

Predictions against the timetable
87.3%
of eligible provider predictions were within five minutes of the timetable.
These are provider predictions, not independently measured arrivals. Missing evidence is not counted as on-time service.
Calculated: Oct 9, 2026
2 partial-capture days not counted.
Explore the dated evidence Source of this resultShare of predictions within five minutes of the timetable. Only eligible hours are shown; an absent hour does not mean zero.
19 hourly cohorts meet the thresholds of 30 predictions and 5 service days. Hourly thresholds are assessed separately from the route-wide aggregate.
Improvement or decline requires comparable periods. This single result cannot establish a trend.
Verdict
Only 96% of scheduled trips were seen; the rest are not counted as missed.

Bottom line
Provider predictions were usually close to schedule in this dated sample.
87 in 100 eligible predictions were within 5 minutes of the timetable · 83,590 predictions checkedPrediction sample size: Larger sample
Based on 83,590 eligible provider predictions over 28 measured days, from Sep 9, 2026 to Oct 8, 2026.
Updated Oct 9, 2026, 3:33 a.m.
These are repeated prediction-to-timetable differences, not independently measured service failures. They use the same eligible predictions as the result above, but group by stop rather than hour, so the lists need not match line for line.
No repeated prediction-difference period has cleared the evidence threshold yet.

Schedule change check
This compares the current retained official schedule with the prior retained version. Schedule changes are facts about what was planned; they do not prove that a trip ran.
Current published schedule began October 7, 2026
We check the first Monday after the new schedule began and the Monday one week earlier. Every figure comes from the retained official GTFS versions named below.
At least one selected date uses added or removed calendar-date service. Treat this as holiday or special-service context, not ordinary weekday growth.

We will compare settled arrivals for the 14 days before and after the change. We publish the comparison only after both sides have at least 7 service days and 200 arrivals.
Still collecting: before has 39,117 arrivals over 13 days; after has 3,263 arrivals over 1 days. No improvement or decline is claimed yet.
Checksums let anyone verify which retained timetable produced the counts. A changed count does not identify a cause, cancellation, operator decision, or passenger impact.
We compare the last eligible provider prediction for each scheduled arrival with the official schedule. These are not independently measured arrivals. A result needs at least 200 eligible predictions. Within 5 minutes is the rider-facing target used here.
The public feed does not provide dependable passenger counts or passed-up-rider events. A missing position does not by itself prove a cancellation, no-show, short turn or cause.
Provisional results, published evidence
Each hour compares the last eligible provider prediction for a scheduled arrival with the timetable. “Within 5 minutes” describes that prediction difference, not a measured arrival or proof that a bus ran.

No repeated pattern below 70% is yet established across at least three service days.
296 / 309 scheduled trips published at least one position across 5 service days (95.8%).
This is not a confirmed no-show. A missing position can mean a cancelled or missed bus, but it can also mean an unassigned trip ID or an operator-feed gap. Otranspo publishes the gap because it matters to riders while keeping the conclusion honest.
Prediction check: the last eligible provider prediction no earlier than ten minutes before the scheduled arrival, counted once per trip, stop and scheduled Toronto calendar date. It is compared with the timetable, not an independently measured arrival. Trip-position check: the timetable kept before each service day, matched to recorded positions. Exact IDs are preferred; an OC timetable suffix is matched only to one trip on the same route and date with an overlapping time window. Missing timetables, ambiguous matches and feed gaps stay labelled; they are not confirmed no-shows. Sources and limitations.
