While it wasn’t explicitly stated, it makes me wonder if they’d eventually have Argo (or some fixed bus service) to replace the 8, or even the 52 since they seem to (mostly) fall into Argo’s service boundaries.

Interesting little quirk this board. Brampton Transit seems to be testing interlining more in depth, with operators having to do multiple different routes for one block. While interlining has existed before, (eg. 10/20, 12/16, 24/25, 32/33…) now, there is a lot more than that. Gateway Terminal...

It’s honestly great to hear! This sum of buses definitely suggests that they purchased both expansive and replacement fleets, since some of their oldest Nova buses turn 21 in 2026 (which I believe have commenced the process of retirement). All around great news! Thanks for sharing!

I would guess that they didn’t or else I would have expected a bucketload of routes that say “route adjusted to meet GO Train times” but on that front, I would really like to see some service changes really dedicated to better aligning route trips with GO train times, because as GO train times...

Little funny you mention that considering a “detour” this weekend in which the 5 will be temporarily reutilizing its old routing. Because of repaving on Finch

Good question, wish BT posted this stuff as well 1/1A Queen currently runs at 10 minutes peak combined (20 minutes seperately), during the midday they run currently at 15 minute headways (30 minutes uncombined), and the 1 for the rest of the day runs a mixture of 20-30 minutes into the evening...

Sunday service is staying the same, it’s the Saturday service that is getting tweaked, from 15 to 16 minutes (due to a run time increase)

October 27th service changes: 501 Züm Queen Saturday schedules adjusted to improve service reliability Saturday day service frequency adjusted to 16 minutes 1/1A Queen Weekday schedules adjusted to improve service reliability Weekday service frequency adjusted to: AM/PM peak: 11 minutes...

Really interested and happy to see the forward planning encompasses the entirety of the city. Tad bit funny how some of the areas set to get Higher Order or Züm are rural areas. I’m a little surprised that the McLaughlin corridor is only set to get priority transit south of Queen, and that...

I agree. As the artic fleet continues to age (oldest batch of artics are now 13 years of age. Their peers tend to retire them after 12-15 years of service, but I understand that they plan on going the full 18, at least for now) I would assume there will be an increased demand for more Züm...

I’m aware of that, I just kind of phrased what I mean a little weirdly, my bad, thank you though! More or less, this is what I was referring to! Definitely also makes a lot of sense! Anyways, the service changes took place today, and from what I have seen, riders don’t seem to be adjusting...

Speaking of that, is one of the reasons it’s going to Bramalea GO supposed to coincide with the beginning of 2-way all day GO service?

I suppose something of the sorts would work. Although, there are active plans for a Bramalea Züm in the coming years (iirc from Mayfield Road to either Bramalea GO or the Airport), so that extension wouldn’t be as necessary

Dashed lines don’t usually mean anything when it comes to level of service. The dashed lines are usually to differentiate the “A”, formerly “B” , “C”, and “D” branches from the main route. But to answer your question, 4C will operate daily.

Hopefully MiExpresses’ map was suffice! But Brampton Transit has since added route maps for all affected routes
