Toronto transit projects

[danbrotherston]

My biggest issue with it is that it doesn’t do day passes (or have a daily cap). If we go to Toronto it is usually on a Sunday, where we can purchase a day pass for two people for about $10. With Presto there is no way to handle this so we would be severely overcharged. It’s ludicrous.

This is a good point, and it's something that can easily be addressed in software, but isn't.

Ironically, while Presto may not have targeted tourists, unlike the GRT EasyGO Farecard *cough*, it is a card which can be used by tourists, at least those originating from a different city in Ontario. When I travel to Ottawa, I use my presto card there, even though I'm a tourist--and it's great!...except for the lack of a day pass.
