Transit Changes to Accommodate the Walton Street Reconstruction
With the upcoming closure of Walton Street for phase two of the Walton Street Reconstruction Project, Transit Services will be implementing route changes beginning Monday, April 15, and will continue until the completion of the Walton Street Reconstruction project in the fall.
To ensure continued transit service, we have arranged for modified transit routes during this period. Please take note of the following changes:
Route A:
- Depart Town Hall and proceed north on Mill Street South to Thompson Drive
- Turn south on Ontario Street (new stop replacing A2 in front of the Ganaraska Hotel)
- The route will then continue to Maitland Street to Cavan Street and turn onto South Street
- South on Pine Street to Walton Street and continue the standard route
- On the return route, Stop A34 will be moved West of Pine Street and the bus will turn south on Pine Street before returning to Town Hall
- Note: Stops A35 and A36 will not be used
Route B:
- Depart Town Hall and proceed north on Mill Street South to Thompson Drive
- Turn south on Ontario Street (new stop replacing B2 in front of the Ganaraska Hotel)
- The route will then continue on Maitland Street to Cavan Street and return to the regular route
A detailed look at the changes can be viewed on our interactive transit map.
These adjustments have been made to minimize disruption and inconvenience to our residents while ensuring that transit services remain accessible during the construction period.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and cooperation during this time.
