Man charged with assaulting Grand River Transit security guard

A person capable of wielding broken glass in this sort of situation is certainly one you don't want on your transit system.

That said, he 'had previously been issued a trespass notice for all GRT and LRT property', and this happened at Central Station, which occupies the entirety of the sidewalk there. Is he required to detour around all roads with sidewalk platforms when walking downtown?

At that stop I’m pretty sure there is additional sidewalk beyond the platform. Certainly there is concrete surface behind the shelter. I don’t think the same is true at other downtown stops. That being said, I don’t have a problem with anybody who does that being banned from a few sidewalks here and there. If he doesn’t like it he can go to jail or learn to be peaceful instead if he prefers.

Not in all locations. See Vic park and city hall stations. 

We had this question regarding fare paid regs. 

Which in fact extend, am I not allowed to wait until a train is arriving before tapping.
