History

E-Z Rider II BRT #1062 at Upper Canada Mall on route 52.
SLF-235 #217 at Newmarket GO Bus Terminal on route 52.

In 2002, YRT started expanding service to smaller communities that did not yet have access to public transit other than GO Transit. Before, it's main focus was maintaining and increasing service operated by the former agencies it had acquired, therefore communities that did not have service before amalgamation largely went unnoticed. One of the smaller communities that needed service was Holland Landing, located a few kilometers north of Newmarket. YRT decided to implement a new route to serve this area, and connect it to the rest of the York Region network.

  • September 3, 2002 - Route 52 begins service.
  • May 8, 2005 - Weekday morning rush hour trips no longer serviced Upper Canada Mall, using Davis Drive and Yonge Street instead due to traffic congestion.
  • December 2012 - Route 52 was declared fully accessible.
  • April 21, 2013 - As part of the 2013 Annual Service Plan, all conventional bus service after 7pm on weekdays and Saturdays on this route is replaced with Dial-a-Ride service. The 5:51am northbound trip and 5:56am southbound trip on weekdays were discontinued.
  • September 1, 2013 - Weekday limited trips to Silver City is discontinued due to low ridership.
  • August 1, 2017 - To serve new communities in Sharon, the limited AM service routing to East Gwillimbury GO Station was changed to operate via Leslie Street between Mount Albert Road and Green Lane.

  • November 4, 2019 - Weekday midday and evening service is supplemented with MOR Holland Landing providing direct stop-to-stop service.
