It took one GO Transit scheduling change to turn Siddhartha Batra from a regular commuter to a full-time remote worker.
to turn Siddhartha Batra from a regular commuter to a full-time remote worker.
“There is no way on Earth I'm travelling two hours on public transit, one-way,” Batra said in an interview. “I won't be using it at all because it just doesn't work anymore.” Batra's old Route 21 bus fell victim to the latter change. Rather than catching a direct ride from Union, travellers are now being asked to take a GO train to one of three stations on the Lakeshore West line before reconnecting with the bus to continue the trip.
A statement from Metrolinx said long-anticipated efforts to refurbish Toronto's Gardiner Expressway prompted the changes on Route 21, arguing the new schedule will make travel times more “consistent and reliable” amid the expected construction.
