YRT revises routes and services, April 20



This Sunday, Easter, April 20, York Region Transit starts implementing some of the recommendations of its 2014 Annual Service Plan. While that might be good news for taxpayers who are looking for savings on their property tax bills, the news isn’t so good for commuters.

YRT is reducing service hours along several routes, including Viva orange, 10 Woodbridge and 23 Thornhill Woods among others.

It’s also introducing or revising dial-a-ride services along more routes.

Specifically, YRT is: canceling a branch of a route; increasing service along routes; decreasing service along routes; increasing the frequency of service along routes; decreasing the frequency of service along routes; revising the path of buses operating along routes; adjusting the schedules of routes; and making other changes to service along routes.
