Cambridge is the focus of our 2019 service improvements.
In our plans for 2019, a new iXpress route would be introduced. The 206 Coronation iXpress would connect West Galt with downtown Galt, Cambridge Memorial Hospital, Preston, Sportsworld and Fairway ION station. Local routes in Preston and West Galt would be revised to be more direct and connect to the new 206 iXpress. Other routes in the Region would see more frequent service and longer hours of operation.
