Intercity bus transportation
#50
If I recall correctly, is there some barrier about provincial funding for transit that prevents transit services from crossing municipal boundaries? While Waterloo paid Kitchener for the Kitchener Transit service (and that may have pre-dated whatever provincial rules now exist), I understood that transit service between Kitchener and Cambridge didn't really happen until Waterloo Region took over transit.

Maybe if Guelph Transit and GRT each committed to sending two express buses each between the Kitchener train station and the Guelph station on a half-hourly-ish schedule, that would call GO Transit's bluff increase inter-city transit in the Region that didn't have to include a stop in Aberfoyle/Morriston. Or (not to get greedy) at least Kitchener - Breslau - West Guelph - Downtown Guelph?

And if that worked, do the same that went Galt - Hespeler - Guelph along Highway 24/124?
