MiWay Service Changes Start on Jan. 8, 2024

By December 17, 2023December 18th, 2023Announcement, Resources

Starting Monday, Jan. 8, 2024, there will be MiWay service changes that include more weekday service on Route 66 McLaughlin, revised routing on Route 20 Rathburn to improve service reliability and eliminate service duplication along Rathburn Road, and new trips added on several routes.

More frequent weekday service on Route 66 McLaughlin

Route 66 McLaughlin will operate more frequently on weekdays to alleviate customer overcrowding resulting from increased customer demand between Sheridan College (Davis Campus in Brampton) and the City Centre Transit Terminal.

New on-street bus stop for Route 18 to serve the Sheridan College Davis Campus (Brampton)

To improve service reliability, Route 18 McLaughlin-Derry will service a new on-street bus stop on McLaughlin Road at Sheridan College Drive (bus stop #6626), close to the main entrance of the Sheridan College Davis Campus in Brampton. This route will no longer travel inside the campus to prevent bus congestion inside the campus terminal.

Revised routing on Route 20 Rathburn

To improve service reliability and eliminate service duplication along Rathburn Road with Route 9 Rathburn-Thomas, Route 20 Rathburn will be revised to end at the City Centre Transit Terminal (CCTT). This route will no longer travel to Erindale GO Station. At CCTT, customers can board Route 20 at Platform O. Alternative route options include: Routes 9 Rathburn-Thomas (to Erindale GO) or 38 Creditview and 38A Creditview-Argentia (along Creditview Road).

New trips added on several routes due to high customer demand

The routes below will have additional service based on ridership growth:

  • 8 Cawthra: new weekday southbound trips at 7:25 am and 2:31 pm from the City Centre Transit Terminal.
  • 10 Bristol-Britannia: new weekday southbound trip at 7:19 am from Meadowvale Town Centre, plus new northbound trips at 2:15 pm and 2:41 pm from the City Centre Transit Terminal.
  • 13 Glen Erin: new weekday northbound trip at 2:12 pm from Clarkson GO Station.

Schedule adjustments

Schedules will be updated on various routes to improve service reliability (a complete list of routes will be available on miway.ca). Traffic and ridership patterns continue to evolve in Mississauga and MiWay will continue to adjust schedules so that services remain responsive to customer needs.

On Family Day (Monday, Feb. 19, 2024), MiWay will operate on a holiday schedule.

  • Two routes will operate at a reduced frequency: 17 Hurontario and 23 Lakeshore.
