9.2. Transit Windsor Master Plan - More Than Transit - City Wide

Mr. Delmore indicates that the Transit Windsor Advisory Committee reviewed and supported the Master Plan which is an important document leading forward to Budget deliberations.

Mr. Delmore indicates that this plan would be considered a positive disruption as it is passenger focused and some citizens may not like it but it is positive growth and change. The number of routes will be doubled and streamlined which increases service for riders and gets people to their destination faster.
