The first of two info sessions is happening this evening. Route 2 and 73 virtual session: Monday, June 5, 7-8:30 p.m.

You can join the virtual session with GRT this evening here, you can visit their Plans page, Twitter, or facebook for that link too. 

GRT will be proposing alternate service with two changes to the transit network to address the impact of discontinuing Route 2:

• Extend Route 34 to Sunrise Centre Station to provide service along Stirling/Greenbrook
• Add a new Route 204 stop at Highland/Path to Burnaby Crescent to provide service to customers in the Rolling Meadows Drive area

This proposal will be presented at the planned information sessions.

Showing up for these sessions is important. It's a great thing that we are at this point!

We appreciate the efforts GRT and Region of Waterloo to host the sessions and develop the proposals for covering the loss of route 2, let's make this a community and infrastructure cooperative dialogue. We've all made best efforts to inform communities and transit users of the discontinuation of the route, share information and open a dialogue about the importance of transit for all. Let's keep it up by showing up!

I'll be online for the virtual tonight and at the in-person session on June 14th, hope to see many of you there.

Enjoy the day!
