Now that the strike vote is official, how are you guys planning on getting to work? Especially if you're downtown? Just curious...

Walk
Drive/Carpool/Bike/Walk/Crawl to an LRT and hope for limited service

Ride my motorcycle/scooter and park wherever there's a hole

This is probably a good time for all those who want to lose weight to bike/walk to work

I had to take transit last week and it was fantastic. I was being rubbed by 7 guys at the same time. It also smelled wonderful too, just this awesome combination of BO and AXE. I hope I never take transit again. It's too bad that T&T Honda is T3H suck, because their shuttle now goes to the train station. Once every hour. At least their courtesy cars aren't too expensive.
Have to get from Okotoks to Bankers Hall... hopefully can get a ride with a coworker

im cringing just at the thoughts of the traffic jams
They voted for strike... but have they given their 72 hour notice???
I have no clue what im doing, i live in Chestermere and have to get to the Telus building d.t
no apparentely they have a meeting next Thursday will all of the transit workers, then after that they will give there 72 hours notice. Atleast we should still have one more week of normal traffic.
Walking from the beltline to downtown and burn off all the cals from the beer I drank during the Flames (short) playoff run.
I ain't going to do anything because I don't take transit. Well I am taking it downtown today because we all know that parking down there blows..I hope that it doesn't go on for too long, in the end the people that lose is the people that take the bus. I think that Bronconier should stop bitching about not getting the expansion to the LRT and fix the transit problems that are here now.
Sounds like this strike isn't going to affect many people, aside from some additional traffic on the roads. Won't affect me any either.
the additional traffic on the roads is going to me monsterous though. Forget about getting a parking spot in downtownOriginally posted by richardchan2002

Monthly passes FTW. As long as you don't leave during peak hours, I bet you'll barely notice a difference in traffic.
They have said that they don't plan on doing an all-out strike, just rotating the outtages at either 1/4 or 1/2 force. This way the entire city doesn't hate the union (they want you to hate the city for not paying them more).
I would guess that the LRT is a priority and will be running. Either by not being included by the union in the strike, or by non-union transit workers (there are a few).
That is just my opinion though.
same thing i always do: drive to the LRT station before everyone else is even awake and get a seat on the train

Can a mod combine 'walk' and 'walk from home' into one? Haha early mornings...
Too late now, the city has made a move to lock out transit workers within 72 hours! No buses at all on Monday!Originally posted by asuth077
