    Default Windsor might ax transit service to Detroit

    From today's Free Press...

    It's been a while since I've used it, but if one is up for a pop over and back to Windsor, it is interesting, convenient, and a uniter of our international metropolis. It would be a shame to see it end.

    "A cross-border transit service that brings Canadians to Detroit and its sporting events and U.S. residents to the Windsor area might be discontinued.

    The Tunnel Bus, which is operated by Transit Windsor, could become a casualty of budget wrangling in Windsor. The Tunnel Bus operates on a one-hour schedule between Windsor and

    Detroit and costs $10 [[Canadian or American) each way.
    Its potential fate has caught the attention of transit advocates on both sides of the border.

    Annual usage is only 85000. That's only about 230 per day. That's a lot of buses running empty day and night. They could just have event buses running to games and concerts. It would be sad to see it go but if I were a Windsor taxpayer I sure wouldn't want it.
