Nov 11, 2007; 2nd Effort Kick-Off[edit]

—Preceding unsigned comment added by Track Legs (talk • contribs) 08:59, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I kicked off efforts to get this page going. However, much work is still needed. Edits on the San Diego Transit and San Diego Trolley should also be pursued. In fact, since each of those are subsidaries or services provided by MTS, they may need to be removed altogether and replaced by this entry. - Track Man Thomas

Nov 11, 2007: In my 2nd effort, I am intending to create sections to resemble other transit operators, such as MBTA, LA MTA, or SF Muni. Material covered should include Background/Overview of System, Fares, Statistics, Governance, History, Fleet, ectera.

Nov 24, 2007[edit]

I added a bunch of material. Links and appropriate citations to be included later.

February 19, 2008[edit]

MTS division table is being removed. I left a message for CK a few days ago to explain. The gest is that the information is already provided under overview and many of the divisions are no longer accurate. Veolia is alo not a division, as they are a contractor. And, North County Transit District is a separate agency. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Track Legs (talk • contribs) 00:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also reverted the date of operation from 1888 to 1977. This is the date MTDB was born as a result of state enabling legislaton. Although, MTDB did assume operations over previously provided transit service linked to services probably all the way back to 1888. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Track Legs (talk • contribs) 00:44, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline[edit]

This timeline is ridiculous. It should be pared down or even deleted. -Branddobbe (talk) 14:03, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

why delete 130 years of San Diego's public transit history?--Charles E. Keisler (talk), A+ Network+ and Security+ Certified 03:37, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Let's move it to it's own page, and link to it. It makes the page unreadable! 72.225.193.51 (talk) 04:01, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removed material about timeline[edit]

Much of the material was copied from this site. The addition was made in 2009, but the material was in that site earlier, for example in 2008 It is not licensed for use in Wikipedia so I removed it.--SPhilbrick (Talk) 00:21, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merger from San Diego Transit[edit]

The article San Diego Transit should be merged/redirected to this article. I first attempted to expand or update the San Diego Transit article but could find no information. Even the MTS website [1], while mentioning that San Diego Transit Corporation is a subsidiary corporation, gives no information at all that I could find about how SDTC fits into MTS operations or history. Google searching adds nothing; it appears to be completely non-notable. Pretty much everything at the San Diego Transit article is already contained in this article (i.e., San Diego Metropolitan Transit System), so its merger to this article would be no loss. The article has been tagged as outdated since 2010 and was last edited in 2011. --MelanieN (talk) 05:16, 24 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support. There is nothing in the San Diego Transit article that's worth keeping – bring over what little content there is from over there to here, and covert it to a Redirect. --IJBall (talk) 04:52, 28 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done I did the merge today. --MelanieN (talk) 15:38, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Priority seating[edit]

Where would be a good place to bring up priority seating? I know that the buses have it, and that Wikipedia's page on the topic is an orphan, but I don't know where it should go on here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:6000:C083:2E00:410:13AF:964C:B020 (talk) 18:17, 1 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wifi has arrived! Or has it?[edit]

Not sure what section this belongs under, but WiFi was added to the trolleys through a third party partnership in 2015 and as of today (August 22, 2019), all busses (rapid, express and standard) have their own WiFi’s with ssid’s of the bus’s number, however the password is unknown to the public and no driver I asked was even aware the system had been deployed, and only thought it would be on the rapid busses Creeper Ninja (talk) 03:37, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in San Diego Metropolitan Transit System[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of San Diego Metropolitan Transit System's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "midcoast":

From Blue Line (San Diego Trolley): "Mid-Coast Trolley". San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). Retrieved 2016-04-17.
From Orange Line (San Diego Trolley): "Mid-Coast Corridor Transit Project". San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). Retrieved 2013-04-16.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 04:57, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
