What are the limits and unknowns?

  • The FAQ retains old disability-grade and bus-number wording. Those terms are not used to define a visitor’s current exemption or boarding location.
  • The source was read remotely; no visit or transaction was tested.

Official source: Confirmed in an official document or on an official site. Observed is the date the source itself gives for the notice, event or test (Reported, for a report by travellers). Checked is the date we read it. “Not confirmed” after Observed means the source gives no date, and we don’t guess one.
