Less service to high schools after December 18



Most area secondary schools end their autumn term next week, so fewer students and staff are traveling by transit to high schools. Tomorrow, Friday, December 18 is the last day in 2009 that Greater Toronto Area and Golden Horseshoe transit agencies operate special routes and services to high schools.
