OC Transpo Confederation Line

Six weeks in, the CBC asks people to give OC Transpo a grade on the new Confederation Line:

People complaining about "transit integration". People complaing that the feeders don't operate as often or at the time they get off of work. People complaining of mechanical issues.

Thing is, it's just been a measly six weeks. Give the new system some time to iron out the bugs and ask again in five months.

My favourite positive comment:

Complainers obviously haven't taken the London tube very much, or the Rome subway, or the Istanbul trams. I give Ottawa's new system an A grade! It works great whenever I've used it. And what a relief to get so many buses off Slater and Albert. Urban quality just jumped up nicely. I suspect that the whiners' gripe about "reliability" comes more from exaggerated self importance than actual impact.
