It would be interesting to see a transportation study for a large employer like SunLife (or BlackBerry, or Manulife, or Toyota for that matter). Yes, transit appears to be good with frequent iXpress and other GRT service arriving at the doorstep of SunLife. But do the buses actually reach to where the majority of that particular workforce lives? If a portion of the population comes from the GTA each morning, that would bolster the argument for reverse GO Train/Bus service out of the GTA. Similarly, if a person wanted to take transit or bike from their neighbourhood in Waterloo Region to SunLife, how many transfers or awkward trail links might they need to traverse in order carry out that trip?
