How route 99 has been running
A short summary of what we know. We say so when we cannot answer a question.
Bottom line
Dated result, not live service
This prediction-to-timetable result describes the dated period, not service right now. It was last calculated 3 hours ago. Current vehicle positions and official notices are checked separately.
Based on 41,425 eligible provider predictions over 27 measured days, from Oct 6, 2026 to Nov 3, 2026.
Updated Nov 5, 2026, 2:32 a.m.
Where and when did predictions differ repeatedly?
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.
23–00: 33 in 100 eligible predictions differed from the timetable by more than 5 minutes (477 predictions over 14 days).
2 current notices affect this route
• Limebank Station: Passenger pick-up and drop-off area relocation
• Detour: Routes entering and exiting Limebank Station
30 in 100 eligible predictions differed from the timetable by more than 5 minutes (986 predictions over 29 days).
Open this stop
These are route-specific provider predictions compared with the timetable. They identify repeated prediction differences at a place and time, not measured arrivals or their cause.

What riders want to know
Is any trip cancelled right now?
0 of 12Checks trips starting at route endpoints in the next 4 hours. This is not a historical cancellation rate.
Possible no-shows after checking feed gaps?
0 of 501 checked trips need a closer look0 of 501 trips with enough public-feed evidence had no matching position over 7 days. 0 of 501 scheduled trips were excluded because the feed record was incomplete. These are cases to investigate, not confirmed no-shows.
How did provider predictions differ from the timetable?
No route-level result meets the evidence threshold yet. This does not mean gaps did not happen.

Checksums let anyone verify which retained timetable produced the counts. A changed count does not identify a cause, cancellation, operator decision, or passenger impact.
How this route is judged: Regular all-stop route
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.
What this data cannot prove
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.
See the definitions, thresholds and evidence order
Official current feed: explicit cancellations, skipped stops and active notices.
Matched observations: vehicle positions and settled predictions tied to the official schedule.
Official timetable: what was planned, kept separate from what was observed.
Rider and operator reports: leads about routes, times and places to investigate, not numeric proof by themselves.
Provisional results, published evidence
How did predictions compare with the timetable?
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.
Evidence window: October 6, 2026 to November 3, 2026
1 hourly block(s) are below 70% across at least three service days: a repeated pattern, not one bad day.
Scheduled bus, but not observed in realtime
501 / 501 scheduled trips published at least one position across 6 service days (100.0%).

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.
