i can only imagine. i was at finch going north at 10am and the bus was packed. didn't help my commute time that the asshole viva workers blocked every bus going in AND out of richmond hill centre for roughly 10 min each.

as soon as I heard about this, I took the Spadina line upto Downsview to get to where I needed to go.. probably took me an extra 15 minutes in total which in turn saved me likely more than an hour having to deal with that chaos..
i just don't understand why some people don't seek out alternate routes.. it's like this hive mentality that everyone thinks there's only one way to get from A to B

I did the same thing. The sheppard buses were rammed though so I walked across. left work at 5, got home at 7.

Not really - it took us 1 hour from Yonge and Queen to Avenue and St Clair last night at 5.30pm and then 45 mins from Avenue and St Clair to Queen and Pape at 8pm.
Journey 1 should have taken 10 mins and journey 2 should have taken 15 mins.

saw it at 530, walked through it, got on the bloor line and moved freely and happily to my destination
That's why I have no desire to ever live along the Yonge line.
Green line all the way baby!

I took Queen from work to go to Yonge and Shepherd to my bfs place...I think I boarded the station at about 5:30. It seriously was my biggest nightmare because I am claustrophobic, and I also have a fear of big crowds..Not only the trains were so packed, we stopped at each station before unboarding at Yonge and Bloor for like 10 minutes.
I literally was sucked into different movements, people were very rude, kept yelling and pushing everyone...There were lots of cops..I tried to use a pay-phone to let my bf know to pick me up from Wilson instead of Shepherd line, but I couldn't even go down the escalator to the Bloor line...Very fucked up! It took me 15 minutes just to get out of the subway, and I walked to St. George instead...I officially hate TTC!
