ONEXBUS Stratford Ottawa recent customer reviews

Bus drivers and the rides were great! Smooth travelling on an early snowy trip then later a rainy weather day. But buses were late at both Stratford and Toronto , so we stood outside in cold windy wet snowy places for 45 mins before boarding both times. This was the uncomfortable part, which I know can’t be helped when weather takes over.
