i don't think so, considering it was a Ray Wan design

Pretty sure theres less than 10-12 Classics left, 858, 373, 449 (if not refurbished yet) and most of the 2001 D30LFs. I'm going to be seeing nothing but white soon

I met a driver off CPTDB who ran 47-4 and 162-14 during the PM/Night, along with David and a few others at the MTHA event, nice guy. Otherwise, haven't met anyone else off the board. I'll try and make it out to R99 soon, then I can meet you! Been stuck in St James lately, but I was bus spotting (and photographing) downtown in September. Red Jacket (or Iron Maiden hoodie), iPhone or blue camera, taking photos usually during rush hours. Not hard to miss. Also tried some SSP photos and events, still haven't met anyone off here except for camzmac and trueviking (rapid transit; FP Cafe railyards event).

so i went on his website and i saw a proposal for an office tower on the whiskey dix parking lot,, the reendering looks pretty nice is this going through? not the tallest building in the world but it sure as hell an improvement over the surface parking lot currently located there.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


so man truviking im kinda disappointing man can you give me a hint bout any exciting new upcoming projects on the horizon to cheer me up!!!!!!!!!!!

[armorand93]

Guys, we should have an SSP Lottery Pool. If we win, we'll replace that parking lot with a mid-rise (high-rise if we can afford it). If not that, how about a mid-rise at Sturgeon and Portage? Polo Park, perhaps? Maybe Portage Place...

[1ajs]

how many of the units that the 40million the proivince has poored money into been built or are curently built percentage wise? anyone know?

I can't figure the 99 out

There are two loops in the same colour! I need separate colours.

It seems to be the only bus going down Donald these days since the 66 no longer does.

I have to agree. Imagine what Portage and Main NW corner would've looked like if CanWest didn't go bankrupt?

Canwest didn't go bankrupt, they were bought by Shaw.

Theres way too much service provided on River/Stradbrook. 68, 99, 185. Want 99 ridership? Axe the barely-used 185!

Am I mistakenly posting in the Winnipeg Transit forum lately???......
