What's New In Transit

In 2017 Brandon Transit conducted a review of all routes to ensure a convenient and cost effective service is provided. The previous network was implemented in 2002 as a hub and spoke model, with a transfer point downtown every 30 minutes. Due to growth and ridership, Transit has outgrown the current network. This new and improved network offers comparable coverage to the previous system, using fewer resources by providing it in a different way.

In addition to the upgraded network, riders will see a variety of modifications and upgrades throughout the system.

Accessibility Upgrades

Thanks to a multi-level government-funded program, in 2019 Brandon Transit will update 27 bus stops throughout the city. This project will be completed in four phases. Phase one will commence on July 29, 2019. Bus stops will not be closed, but temporarily moved during construction.

Starting locations are:

Centre Ave. @ 1st St.

Value Village

Knowlton Dr. @ Braecrest Dr.

Walmart

Home Dept

Downtown Terminal

Thanks to a multi-level government0funded program, in 2019 Brandon Transit will update the safety fencing along the west and east side of the Downtown Terminal. Construction will begin August 6, 2019. The terminal will not be shut down during construction. However, buses may not be parked in the usual spot. Please ask an Operator if you are unsure of the location of your bus.

The multi-level government-funded program will also allow Brandon Transit to upgrade the older and outdated Info Center. Starting in Mid-August construction will begin on the small white building in the center of the Downtown Terminal. This building will be updated, and the Info Center will relocate.
