I came home on the 4:50-6:47 GO train the other night anticipating that I would be able to grab a bus to Forest Heights with minimal wait time but found out that 15 minute service ends at 6 and if I didn't run, or the train was delayed by any amount of time, I'd be waiting 30 minutes for my next ride home. Thankfully the train was a few minutes early and the detour across the expressway caused a delay on the 204, but after almost 3 hours from leaving the office, having to wait in the cold an extra 20+ minutes at a shelterless / benchless stop does not seem appealing.
I know it is possible to lobby GRT for scheduled adjustments to a certain extent, but this really works against seamless connections for transit in the area. Low headways all day on the main routes cannot come soon enough.
