Latest developments and service changes

Fall service – 2025

As of August 25

This Fall, the system will be upgraded in response to growing demand. 

New services will help meet peak period demand, as well as the significant growth being seen at other times. 

In total, 72 trips will be added, involving some 15 routes with the biggest overloads. As well, buses in the Rapibus corridor will run with greater frequency during peak periods.

Route changes in downtown Hull

Number 36, 37, 371 and 38 buses will be rerouted weekdays after 9 a.m.

  • All buses will cross to Ottawa over the Portage Bridge. Thus, the departure and arrival terminal will always be the Rideau Centre. 
  • Buses will no longer be crossing the MacDonald-Cartier Bridge weekdays after 9 a.m. The service provided by those buses will be provided by number 31, 33 and 35 buses.
     

Schedule changes

There will also be schedule changes throughout the system starting August 25. Be sure to check before heading out.

  • Route 431: +1 trip
  • Route 437: - 1 trip
  • Route 550: +1 trip
  • Route 731: -1 trip
