The transit authority has officially reversed the proposed service cuts for our routes. Reflecting on this outcome, it is clear that our collective persistence was the decisive factor. We will remain attentive to future discussions to ensure these essential connections remain secure for our community.

**UPDATE** (as of 8am, Wednesday, April 6th)

This list has now been submitted to OC Transpo and Councillor Keith Egli (ward 9) for consideration. ***Thank you everyone for your support!*** ________________________________________________________________________The city, and OC Transpo, are proposing eliminating the # 3 bus.  We can't let this happen!


 In addition, changes to the 156, 57, 111, and 117 are being proposed that will see them no longer in the nieghbourhoods of Parkwood Hills, Borden Farm, Fisher Glen, Stewart Farm, and Carleton Heights. Council has already approved the budget for the OC Transpo proposal, without public consultation! The only way to save our buses is to speak up now! Public Consultation: Nepean Sportsplex, Thursday, March 31st 7pm. sign the petition and join us!

TOTAL GARBAGE. They cut our routes then wonder why nobody takes the bus. Fix your act OC Transpo.

I rely on the 156 every single day to get to school. If this gets cancelled im basically stuck at home. Really unfair.
