On Monday, April 15, commuters in Port Hope will experience changes to Route A and Route B due to phase two construction on Walton Street.
These two routes have been adjusted to avoid the construction area, meaning stops A35 on Walton near Lent Lane and A36 near the Capitol Theatre won’t be in use for the time being.
Furthermore, stop A34 will shift to the west side of Pine Street, where the bus will veer south on Pine before looping back to Town Hall.
Below are complete details on the changes:
Route A:
Depart Town Hall and proceed north on Mill Street South to Thompson Drive
Turn south on Ontario Street (new stop replacing A2 in front of the Ganaraska Hotel)
The route will then continue to Maitland Street to Cavan Street and turn onto South Street
South on Pine Street to Walton Street and continue the standard route
On the return route, Stop A34 will be moved West of Pine Street and the bus will turn south on Pine Street before returning to Town Hall
Note: Stops A35 and A36 will not be used
Route B:
Depart Town Hall and proceed north on Mill Street South to Thompson Drive
Turn south on Ontario Street (new stop replacing B2 in front of the Ganaraska Hotel)
The route will then continue on Maitland Street to Cavan Street and return to the regular route
A detailed look at the changes can be viewed on our interactive transit map.
