I think that for the average person that drives, the only thing that will make them use transit is when it's cheaper and faster than driving/parking. Right now it's neither.
I remember working downtown Ottawa when I was a student. The first two days of work I drove 55 minutes to get to the office for 9am (which was normally a 20 minute drive, max) and paid $15 for parking. The third day I took the bus. $3 or whatever it was and 35 minutes. You can guess what I did from that point forward.
