Barrie, ON looks for more efficient approach to public transportation with Transit ON Demand pilot

Barrie, ON Transit ON Demand Pilot Efficient Transportation

In Progress

Commuters use the TOD app to request pick-ups and drop-offs at 34 bus stops in the pilot zone. The app optimizes routes for each bus to maximize the number of passengers per trip. Transit officials designed a trial area that connects TOD riders to other areas of the city by five fixed-route options. TOD buses operate from morning to early evening six days a week with the same fares as the traditional bus service.
