Dude - where's my bus - the Ottawa story

From the frustrations of waiting for a bus that never comes in the suburbs of Ottawa (Riverside South) I went down a rabbit hole of exploring the OC Transpo system, specifically what is causing late busses, why has service gotten so bad, the disastrous line 1 LRT project, and what we can expect in future. So please join me in finding out just WHERE the bus is.

Beware - long - but so much is familiar!
