“We could pull Remix up on the screen in every meeting and say, ‘Okay, I’d like to see the route go down this street,’ and we could see roughly how much that would cost us in real time.”

"Our main goal with planning a new route is to service as many people as possible. Using Remix gives us more confidence that a new route will be successful because it now becomes a data-driven business case."

"I’ve been using Remix a lot to flesh out a lot of ideas that I have, both in terms of potential and new bus routes and for making modifications to existing routes. It’s a really great way to put lines and stops down on a map and try to gauge …

"I think it’s pretty safe to say what we’ve done, because of having Remix, we would not have been able to do without it. The difference is between doing it and not doing it, in a sense. Without Remix, it would’ve been impossible."

“Remix allows us to pull in data in one spot and we can put it all together at one time, while we’re designing.”

“It’s great to see the effects of how we connect to our neighboring cities, Hamilton and Oakville, how we can incorporate routes there, and inside of our city, and meet the needs of our seniors, without actually spending the money. It was probably a day of clicking.”

“When you try to communicate to audiences goals, objectives, and strategies, it’s really difficult to show them, ‘what is improved access? What does that look like?

“When it came time to finalize the plan, getting buy-in was easier because they actually understood it.”

“How Remix really saves me time is instead of drawing something on, you know, taking a screenshot of Google and doing a hand-drawn line image, or doing something like that and submitting it to our graphics team and waiting on them to make a map, then realizing there’s a mistake …

“There are a lot of ways to skin a cat. We would draw it out, where we thought the proposed termini were, along with the proposed route, and that quickly gives us an estimate of not only the service hours and miles for each of those scenarios, roughly how many …

“There is nothing else like Remix in the transit marketplace. It places many planning tools into one resourceful package, providing a useful and intuitive solution for both expert planners and newbies.”

“We never had drivers do multiple routes with the same bus before. This would have been difficult to do by hand since we never had such complex routes, on top of adding peak service hours. And now we’re saving a whole lot of money because of it.”

"Remix makes the manual process of planning transit automatic. Remix helps me visualize options and test out different solutions on the fly."

"It's crucial to have accurate data to see the inequities of access to transportation."
