Yes, it's right, RTC charge 5$ for their system maps. It was free before, then they stop producing it for a year or two. But they came back in 2015 with new maps.

It's possible to print it, but the ink is very expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is MiWay Transit in Mississauga which is $2.00 available online (is it even worth shipping a paper map), at Islington Station or the City Centre Transit Terminal. They chose to charge for those that need it to recover the costs of making a hard copy of the system map. Thanks for letting me know that MiWay system maps can be ordered online! I just received my copy in the mail today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 On Tuesday, Sept. 6, Route 231 becomes Route 228, and Route 232 becomes Route 222. Routing and schedules do not change. The new numbering is part of preparations for the launch of the O-Train Confederation Line in 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTAmissions1 Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Route 97 is now updated that after 10 PM until 3:17 AM in the Airport direction uses King Edward. 10 PM until 3:37 AM for the Bayshore/Tunney's Pasture direction. Weekends/holidays: It is until the very last trip of the service day. http://www.octranspo.com/images/files/route_pdf_future/september/map_carte_097.pdf After two service changes, they finally place it on the map. Though, they do have an announcement when the 97 reaches Laurier heading toward South Keys/Airport saying "After 10 PM, Route 97 doesn't service Laurier Station." Essentially filling in the gap when the 98 Hawthorne via Lees when it stops running after 10 PM on weekdays. Route 98 stops running after 7 PM from MacKenzie King on Saturday, though the 95 is frequent service until the 97 helps supplement service to Lees. Sundays, they tweaked it to add a few additional trips on the 98 to cover the gap which it used to stop running after 6 PM Sundays/holidays. 23 minutes ago, Gregory said: The new route maps for all routes serving LeBreton Station are also up.

They have been starting to hard code in the new route maps on the website. Still no service changes up on the website yet. Route 182 now has an updated route map covering the three additional stations beyond the previous terminus at Lincoln Fields Station. http://www.octranspo.com/images/files/route_pdf_future/september/map_carte_182.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAmissions1 Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Fall service changes are out now: http://www.octranspo.com/routes/new_fall_service_starting_sept._4 The three already covered in this thread about Route 101 and 103 extended to Carling Place during peak periods, Route 167 and 182 extension. One new thing mentioned is reallocating resources during certain time periods from 95 (Orleans/Trim) and 98 (Hawthrone via Greenboro) using the Lees routing to Route 91 (Orleans) and 97 (South Keys/Airport) that utilizing Nicholas to Highway 417. Reducing the travel time by 5 to 10 minutes by using 91 or 97 instead of using the 95 or 98. An example: The 98 which runs every 5 minutes during the afternoon peak will be reduced to 10 minutes because those drivers and buses will be doing the 97. Have to move the supply to where the demand is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cre47 Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 STO User Guide's 2016-17 is now online. They were a bit slow to post the full guide as they were saying it would be posted by the first week of August. So the three local routes in Aylmer have been reorganized, two of them basically doing a figure-8 loop while another local route with run near the Galeries Aylmer Route 57 is removed with route 67 serving the Pointe-Gatineau area all day but will end in Ottawa Several Gatineau sector routes will have half-hour service during midday on weekdays Not shown on the changes, the Census Route 10 will not be extended beyond August 26 unlike in 2011 which ended in October.

tomsbuspage Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 The Canada Lands Company announced in their Sept. 2016 Wateridge Village newsletter that they've "reached an agreement with OC Transpo to offer early transit service in the new neighbourhood by 2017 with regular bus service. Once the first 50 homes are built and occupied, residents will be able to access route 129 which will make eight trips in the morning and eight in the afternoon during peak hours during the week."

OCtranspo10 Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Looks like there will be many route re-numbering in the Spring 2017 changes. All 20's, 30's, 40's, 60's, and 70's going to the 200's. And others like the 124 to 24. removing the 1XX off all local routes that connect to the LRT.
