York University and Metrolinx, the provincial transit agency that operates GO, each say the other was responsible for the bus route change. The payment would cover the period between January and April, after which limited bus service would resume, and Metrolinx estimated it would cost York $800,000. She said York and Metrolinx “can continue the negotiations” and decide later who is going to reimburse students and university workers. The decision to reroute bus service to Highway 407 station affected seven GO bus routes and about 575 daily bus trips to and from the university. The service Verster proposed in his Jan. 25 letter would be more infrequent than what used to serve the campus.
