Starting on Monday, April 29, 2024, there will be changes to MiWay services to increase capacity on high-demand routes, improve service reliability, and improve the quality of shift work to support the well-being of our Transit Operators. These service changes include improving the weekend service frequency on Routes 61 Mavis and 66 McLaughlin, implementing seasonal service reductions on routes that serve post-secondary schools due to the summer academic term, and adding new trips on several high-demand routes to support continued customer growth.
