It seems like YRT finally woke up and realized people take the bus on weekends. If even half of these proposals get approved by regional council, it would seriously be some good changes. Interesting to see that they are finally leveraging TTC contracts, giving ideas to push the 130 to Aaniin, finally all day Birchmount service (albeit 60 minute frequencies💀), and having the TTC run viva frequencies up McCowan. Other proposals include extending hours close to midnight on a few routes, giving midday and weekend service, increasing frequencies by 15+ minutes on routes, and overall these are some very solid proposals. What do you guys think?
