The Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority has been difficult to cover in past years because of the routing of it's fixed Route 11 line. But also, because 10 of it's lines pertain to the Troy Section - Buckeye/ North Country Trail and most of them have different routines on one way streets in Downtown Dayton. So in addition to what tracks that I already had made for them, I ended up having to write separate downtown tracks for them. The problem comes if the end user tries to use their track manager on their GPS enabled device and it's set to "distance," they'll have to examine all four of these downtown routes to determine what they're options are if they don't board, or disembark at the Wright Stop Plaza.
The best thing for the end user to do is use Dayton's OTHR information for planning, or reaching the transit stop from the trail. But since this transit authority has an automated, on-line scheduler, it would be best that they rely on it instead for everything else.
