We don't necessarily care about the cost or the development charges or anything like that. From just the Region of Waterloo budget, which does not include local roads nor provincial highways: $890m in capital costs for road rehabilitation and expansion in the next 10 years. Of that, $316m is for reconstruction or resurfacing, and $244m is for road widening. RE: Guelph Transit - SammyOES - 11-09-2015 Meh, forget it. I don't think there's much point carrying on this discussion here. I'll let you guys have the last word. RE: Guelph Transit - yige_t - 03-21-2017 Bump! Guelph Transit is proposing a massive service change for September 2017. http://guelph.ca/2017/03/guelph-transit-service-changes-effective-september-3-2017/ You can read the whole plan following the above link, but below are the highlights:
Map: RE: Guelph Transit - MidTowner - 03-21-2017 Those look like great changes. The trip I'm most familiar with in Guelph is getting from Kitchener to the offices on Stone via the train station- having one route with ten minute headway would be great. Nice and easy.

Like Waterloo Region, Guelph has a great central transit corridor, running along Woolwich Street and Gordon Street, making it a perfect candidate for more frequent bus service, and quite possibly someday, BRT. Gordon Street is a designated intensification corridor, so it will be the focus of much more infill development in the future. RE: Guelph Transit - yige_t - 08-15-2017 Schedules have been posted for the September changes and here are more details on new routes: Route 99 Mainline will run every 10 minutes, Monday to Friday, from 6am to 12am. Weekend service is every 15 minutes from Gordon/Clair to Guelph Central, and every 30 minutes from Guelph Central to SmartCentres. Route 41 Downtown-University Express will run every 10 minutes peak and every 12~20 minutes off-peak/evenings until 12am. Weekend service is every 15 minutes. Route 3 Westmount will run every 20 minutes weekday peak and midday, every 30 minutes evenings and weekend. Route 17/18, which replaces route 2 West Loop and 3 East Loop, will run every 30 minutes at all times. Route 40 Scottsdale Express will run weekday PM peak only, every 30 minutes. 10-minute service until end of service seems a bit overkill for Guelph and I'd rather see money spent on later Sunday service instead (currently ending at 6pm) - other than that, this is a huge improvement and I'm curious to see the ridership numbers a few years from now. http://guelph.ca/living/getting-around/bus/schedules/schedules-sept2017/ |
