In response to Dixie Road construction, a permanent route is being introduced to provide consistent, reliable service for riders along Dixie Road and in Lakeview.

Instead, the new Route 31 Ogden, operating seven days a week, will replace the temporary Ogden Shuttle, offering direct access from Dixie Outlet Mall to Long Branch GO and along Ogden Road. This change will enable riders to plan their trips online with greater accuracy and reliability.
