Excellent news; but the longevity of the email may not be pertinent in this circumstance.
Edit to add: GO and TTC, but especially the former are likely to see a material uptick in their number of riders in May:
Return to office discussion
He told us at lunch that the current rumor is that they will require us in office 2 days a week, one of which has to be at our Brampton office so the CEO can do a weekly Town Hall. I guess my first question at this town hall should be why do we need to be in the office at all when the only time...

@northern, lol proofreading before posting is obviously not my strong suit, but Metrolinx emails are archived for an eternity
Unfortunately the changes are not 15 minute service, but the pleasant surprises involve the Kitchener line, as well as a new bus route many have been hoping for.
Public revealing of the changes should be happening soon.

In riding the Kitchener line lately, I have noticed that it has become the commuting route of choice for bicycle couriers who work downtown. Etobicoke North seems to be the terminal point for many. 30-40 bikes on a train, the doorways are chock full of bikes.
It almost felt like a Niagara train on a summer Sunday.
I wonder if dedicated bike space on every train is in ML’s plans.

Considering we’ve been waiting and asking for close to an eternity, it fits

I’m glad to hear from other posters we might get good Kitchener news. Don’t forget though, the Barrie and Stouffville weekend temporary cuts are also real.

I wonder what the Niagara Service will look like this year.

A Hamilton-K/W via Guelph (highway 6 + 7) bus route would be nice, but that's probably along the line of a fantasy.

Hopefully very short term pain for long term gains!

The Kitchener-Guelph route is very likely given what we’ve seen, but extending that down to McMaster, Aldershot and/or Downtown Hamilton would be amazing.

Whole-heartedly agree. that would connect Wellington/Waterloo to that area plus Niagara. But that would be an extremely big improvement, are GO bus service changes really going to become extremely big improvements? Forgive my pessimism.

I will post all the changes here, one at a time, editing my post as required:

Here's the thing we've been waiting for:
The Barrie Cuts:
Modest Service Enhancement for Milton:
Stouffville Cuts:

The number of Bus Changes are too large for this post; and it will also take me a bit to work through them!
