Grand River Transit

[Bytor]

If you look closely at the map on the explainer page, all the stops and route sections affected have a serious grade difference or tight turning radius that make it hard to negotiate in heavy snow. I'm sure the list has been compiled from incidents in previous winters. I have no problems with them being proactive on known areas of concern.

I looked at the 206, on Cedar Road across the river. There's one short spot between Richardson and Kay that is 6%, Woodside is 4%, and everything else is 2-3%.

I rode the old 55 & 62 numerous times a from 2004 to 2009 while I lived in Cambridge, including during winter storms, and I do not remember the busses having problems on Cedar, Southwood or St. Andrews in the snow.
