Multiple GO train trips have been cancelled due to what Metrolinx says is “crew constraints.”

On the Lakeshore West and East lines, a total of 10 trips this afternoon and evening were cancelled, according to GO Transit’s website.

There are also four trips on the Barrie line that are also cancelled. GO Transit is advising commuters to take shuttle buses that will make all stops to Rutherford Go before making their way to Union Station Bus Terminal.

Those at Downsview Park GO are advised to take the TTC to get downtown.

GO Transit has also cancelled four trips on the Stouffville line. The transit agency says those going to Kenney, Agincourt and Milliken stations may take the TTC from Union Station.

GO Transit says a GO bus will replace those cancelled trips, departing Union Station Bus Terminal for Unionville GO. From there, the bus will make all stops to Mount Joy GO.

Metrolinx did not say what’s the reason behind the limited crew today.

“We thank our customers for their patience during this afternoon’s service disruption,” Metrolinx said in a statement.
