Provide TTC route information in mashable format

I'd like to see the TTC map information freed up from the PDFs it is currently in. Most of the information is in tabular form. If it could be freed up, then this information could be mapped to maps from Google or Yahoo, or better yet, with NextBus information.

    The TTC has opened up some route information already; might be worth clarifying what you're looking for here? It sounds like you want the 'shapes' of the routes for use with mapping?

    Also, see http://MyTTC.ca for what's already been done before TTC released their data.

    The shapes of the routes can be determined by the route and stop information contained in the files in http://www.toronto.ca/open/datasets/ttc-routes/

    These are in tabular text files, not PDFs.
