The 7 at Conestoga Mall was jammed to capacity and about 15 potential passengers were left in the cold at the station. On the way down King st we had to deny passengers at several stops.
Great to see the demand but crazy that people are being left behind.
Was that the 7 that left around 5:25 or so? If so, I was on that bus. What a zoo.
The weather had a lot to do with it, to be fair. But every day, the 200 reaches crush load and the 7s are pretty packed, too. As soon as something like weather affects operations, people get left out in the cold.
