Transit Windsor (formerly the Sandwich, Windsor and Amherstburg Railway Company) operates transit service in the region of Windsor, Ontario. Transit Windsor is also unique in that it is one of only a few, if not the only, fixed-route transit agency that operates a frequent fixed transit route across an international border, through the Tunnel Bus service (formerly operated by the Detroit-Canada Tunnel Company) to downtown Detroit (MI), where connections are made with DDOT, SMART (including the FAST rapid transit service), M-1 Rail QLINE, Detroit People Mover and the D2A2 service to Ann Arbor, Michigan. Transfers can also be made to Tecumseh Transit at Tecumseh Mall in East Windsor. Paying a full fare, riders can also access Leamington Transit at the Nature Fresh Farms Recreation Centre when riding route 42.

History

Timeline of important events

This section is incomplete. You can help! [1] [2]

  • 1977 - On November 1st, the Sandwich, Windsor and Amherstburg Railway Company becomes Transit Windsor. At the time, the active fleet consisted of 90 transit buses, two suburban buses, three highway coaches and one double-decker bus.
  • 1979 - The old Kildare Road garage is abandoned and torn down to make room for an expansion of a General Motors transmission plant. A portion of the property is temporarily leased back to Transit Windsor until the new administrative offices and garage at 3700 E.C. Row Avenue (since renamed North Service Road East) are dedicated on April 29th.
  • 1982 - Transit Windsor took over the Tunnel Bus service, after the tunnel corporation ceased to operate the tunnel service. The buses used to operate the service were sold to an individual in Michigan, who ran a shuttle service for a private college. Eventually some were used for parts to keep the others running before ceasing operations.
  • 1988 - Mascot "Willi" is introduced.
  • 1989 - New fareboxes are installed in August, capable of reporting the number of boarding passengers, passenger types, bus routes and times of day.
  • 1996 - Fort Frances Transit ceases operation and sells two of their Orion Bus Industries Orion II buses to Transit Windsor, which then become their first low-floor buses. They would later be placed into service on the short-lived Devonshire Mall - Silver City Shuttle service in 1998.
  • 2000 - In January, Trip Tickets are introduced, allowing passengers to purchase one-way tickets in sheets of 10 at a discounted rate.
  • 2001 - Bike racks are installed on Transit Windsor's low-floor buses. High-floor buses were never equipped with bike racks as of 2016.
  • 2007 - The new Windsor International Transit Terminal opens.
  • 2016 - On August 24th, the Transit Windsor garage receives minor damage from a nearby passing tornado.
  • 2017 - On September 5th, Transit Windsor will be expanding to include the town of LaSalle(Route 25 LaSalle).
  • 2019 - On July 8th, Transit Windsor will start an express route to the towns of Essex, Kingsville and Leamington called the 42 LTW.
  • 2021 - In September, Transit Windsor will begin operating the new route 518X, an express route serving Tecumseh Mall, Devonshire Mall and St Clair College using EC Row Expressway. This will be a trial for 4 months.
  • 2022 - On September 4th, the new route 605 Amherstburg will launch between Windsor and Amherstburg. It will service the Hotel Dieu Grace Healthcare Terminal in west Windsor and also feature transfers to the 7 and 25 mid-route.
  • 2023 - On June 26th, the new semi-express route 418X will launch between Tecumseh Mall and the University of Windsor. Much of the route will travel along tecumseh road. it will run from 6:30AM-6:30PM, monday to friday every 30 minutes.
  • 2024 - In early 2024, the 2, 1C, 5, 4 will change into the 100, 110, 115, and 200, while the 10 will be discontinued. Also there will be new local routes called the 305,325, 335 and 345.
