Thought I'd share this here.

I spoke to someone from Brampton Transit's Development side of things and they informed me that they anticipate the construction of the 504 Zum Chinguacousy to be finalized by mid to late summer of 2025.

The plan is to launch the 504 alongside the HMLRT, and they plan to reallocate many buses on 502 Zum to the 504.

If for some reason the HMLRT is delayed, they'll expand service on the 104. They mentioned that they're looking to expand the 104 service later this year as part of the service plan, and they're looking for efficiencies in the system to allocate more resources to the #4 route.

City council says it's time for Brampton to back up its tough talk on tackling climate change and find ways to fund a nearly $9 billion project to decarbonize the entire Brampton Transit fleet.

Route 41 is quite the downgrade from the 30-minute service on the old Bolton bus. I know BT still has a bus and driver shortage, but still.

Why not just extend the Route 50 that goes to Humber College?

Why not just extend the Route 50 that goes to Humber College?

Because Gore Road doesn’t go towards Bolton. Highway 50 does. The 50 Gore Road bus has very good ridership where the 41 runs very infrequently. That should change once BT gets more buses and operators, but the geography and service patterns don’t match.

I thought the 50 was a Highway 50 route. Looking at the BT website, I see it's not. But I'd think there'd be enough ridership along Highway 50 now for a full service route between Humber College and Bolton.

It also boils down to having buses and drivers to provide the extra service which BT is short of today.
