Transit service improvements coming this fall

Aug
24
2011

Transit service improvements approved in the 2011 budget come into effect on August 28. Based on motions I made during Council's budget deliberations last winter, we'll see improvements especially to off-peak service (midday, weekend, evening) in the southeast. As outward growth continues in our city, it's critical we provide efficient public transit service to newer areas. 

Here is a summary of some major changes coming into effect in Ward 12:
 
 
Route 78  (Mill Woods TC / Century Park)
  • Route extended to Mill Woods and Century Park (via South Edmonton Common)
  • Weekday early evening service added
  • Sunday midday service added

Route 79  (Mill Woods TC / Century Park)
  • Route extended to Mill Woods and Century Park (via South Edmonton Common)

Route 67  (Mill Woods / Silvery Berry)
  • Weekday early evening service added
  • Saturday midday service added
  • Sunday midday service added
  • Weekday service will begin 30 minutes earlier 

 

Route 89  (Meadows / Tamarack)

  • Weekday early evening service added
  • Saturday midday service added
  • Sunday midday service added
 
* (The following routes will be cancelled, as they are replaced by Routes 78 and 79: Route 92 (Ellerslie / Century Park); Route 93 (Summerside / Century Park); Route 314 (Walker / Mill Woods.)

Fantastic! I wasn't sure how the 93 was working with 79 so this seems great!

Well improvements of transit service resulted pretty positively till now. I guess the people of southeast are pretty satisfied of this change. The route summaries are pretty informative. Thanks
