Grand River Transit

[Viewfromthe42]

I'd at least hope that when we get articulated buses (so many plans now show them), for the busier routes, we'd see all-door boarding for tap-on customers.

That said, I'm curious how Ottawa and Toronto did/do their ridership with all-door boarding. For years, anyone with a pass in Ottawa could get on any door. Those with transfers might also do so. While OCTranspo knew that it had sold a monthly pass or the original transfer-generating trip, all subsequent trip information wasn't guaranteed. You could go your entire month without ever showing your pass to a driver, and none of your boardings or transfers would be counted towards ridership.
