Routing Modifications

Route 91

To expand the Express Route Network, an extension to Route 91 has been approved which will connect Fanshawe College to Argyle Mall via second street. The extension is expected to alleviate crowding on Route 17 east of Fanshawe, and provide an alternate more direct connection between Argyle and major nodes on the Oxford corridor.

Route 127

After the implementation of the 2025 service plan, which saw the modificaiton of Route 10 to travel north on Wonderland north of Sarnia Road to Fanshawe Park Road, terminating at Masonville, concerns were raised with regards to the loss of direct, one bus service between Westmount Mall and Western.  To address these concerns, the Commission approved the extension of Route 127 to Westmount Mall, operating on reduced frequencies of between 17 and 60 minutes depending on time period.
