History

  • Niagara Transit began operations in October 1960.
  • The system was previously known as Niagara Transit before an overhall of the system's image in 2009. This included a new livery consisting of shades of blue and lime green stripes and arcs, which debut on Niagra Falls Transit's 2009 ElDorado buses.
