Revised routing on Routes 13S, 26W and 29

Route 13 Glen Erin (southbound only) will be revised to remain on Erin Mills Parkway and will no longer service Lincoln Green Way and Fowler Drive.

Alternate route options for customers along South Millway, The Collegeway, and Glen Erin include the revised Route 29 Park Royal-Homelands or Route 36 Colonial-Ridgeway.

This revised Route 26 westbound routing will make it consistent with the eastbound routing and provide improved service reliability. There is no change to the eastbound routing. MiWay will reinvest the savings from the route revision back into the route to maintain service frequencies and improve reliability.

Route 29 Park Royal-Homelands (northbound and southbound) will be shortened to terminate at South Common Centre and will no longer service Erin Mills Parkway to Erin Mills Station. Alternate route options for customers who want to travel to Erin Mills Station are the Routes 48 Erin Mills and 110 University Express.

Routes 61 Mavis, 66 McLaughlin and 18 McLaughlin-Derry will continue to service bus stops inside the campus terminal.
