Now I remember that one. The 24 hour S59 ran only a segment of its entire route overnight. And they cut that one. But the S66 took the biggest fall inside the cuts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil 57 Posted June 13, 2019 Share #22 Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) "There are no alternative services". So they basically told S55, S56, S59, S60 and S66 costumers "screw you!" and told them to find their own way there. This is why ridership is declining. Also I never knew that the S59 served Jewett Ave😂 Edited June 13, 2019 by Lil 57 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmatechamp13 Posted June 13, 2019 Share #23 Posted June 13, 2019 They mixed in a bit of the S66 commentary into the S59 commentary. Also would've been nice if they included the ridership stats for Jewett Avenue alone (since riders traveling between Victory/Jewett and St. George can still use the S61/62) instead of just publishing total ridership. The S60 still had weekend service from 10am to 6pm on weekends when it was merged with the S66 in 2010. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
