York Region Transit School Specials

YRT serves most high schools in York Region through School Specials and trips. There are a number of criteria that need to be met to determine if a school special or a tripper should be implemented:
- If a regular route runs beside a school in the direction of popular travel, a special tripper or diversion may be implemented.
- If the loading volume is high, a special tripper may be considered to be implemented starting/ending at the school for students only.
- If loading is minimal, students can end up using the normal route with no special adaptations.
- If the school is a considerable walking distance from the closest bus stop, a diversion may be considered, which can be combined with a tripper to bring students closer to the school.
- If demand exists for an area that is not served directly to the school by a nearby route, a new school special route may be considered. These routes have their own individual number (in the 4xx series) and schedules.
