GO Transit and UP Express customers will likely encounter longer wait times in the coming days due to staff shortages amid the seventh wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Metrolinx says more service delays are also anticipated for both UP Express and GO Transit in the coming days due to a lack of workers who are sick from the virus.
Kukaswadia says both Metrolinx and Alstom, a rail transport manufacturing company, have been impacted by staff shortages due to a changing labour market amid the pandemic. Metrolinx says it is in the process of hiring and training more staff to increase service levels, as ridership has recovered on the weekends but is only at 50 per cent of pre-pandemic levels overall.
Kukaswadia added that dozens of crew members are currently going through a safety training program before they start to work.
