GO Shuttles

GO Shuttle routes are intended to transport commuters to (in mornings) and from (in afternoons) from GO stations for a cash fare of 50 cents, with proof of GO fare. Prior to the spring of 2007, afternoon GO Shuttle routes could not officially pick up any passengers after leaving the GO station. That policy has been changed and the routes may now pick up other passengers, but the special discounted fare does not apply - such passengers must abide by the regular YRT fare rules. As these routes provide connections to and from GO stations, they are subject to changes with GO operations and could even be cancelled if there are no GO passengers needing the service. The YRT does not encourage the routes for local travel and has only recently started publicizing their availability.

Famous quotes containing the words numbering and/or conventions:

    The task he undertakes
    Is numbering sands and drinking oceans dry.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What people don’t realize is that intimacy has its conventions as well as ordinary social intercourse. There are three cardinal rules—don’t take somebody else’s boyfriend unless you’ve been specifically invited to do so, don’t take a drink without being asked, and keep a scrupulous accounting in financial matters.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
