'It's been tough': Students frustrated by GO Transit bus route changes.
The graduate student uses GO Transit to get from her home in Milton, Ont., to the University of Guelph but changes to her typical bus route have meant she's had to shift her routine or endure a journey that takes more than double the time.
Among the changes was the elimination of a direct bus route between Milton and Toronto's Union Station, a key transit hub. Metrolinx also increased service on certain busy routes between Toronto and Kitchener, Ont., but scrapped some train services and replaced them with buses. A trip that used to take Suboor 40 minutes would now take two hours, she said. Suboor now takes a different bus, Route 27, which runs less frequently, to make it to campus. It means she needs to get up earlier and stay on campus later.
"I may have to even consider leaving my role ," he said. "If this … affects my studies, that would be a problem." "We are already hearing complaints from residents and commuters that this change will add up to one hour travel on their commute," she wrote in a letter to the transit operator.
