Timmins Transit

June 23, 2020 - Effective Friday, June 26, 2020, the Timmins Transit Terminal will be open to the public subject to ongoing safety precautions including self-screening, physical distancing and hand sanitizing. Timmins Transit will also be reinstating the collection of fares and will be transitioning from the current enhanced Sunday service level to a Saturday service level beginning Sunday, June 28, 2020. This affects both conventional and Handy Transit services.

This means conventional buses will leave the main terminal at 6:30am with the last bus departing the main terminal for the east end route (901 E) at 10:30pm. This service will be provided seven days a week and reflects the gradual and safe reopening of services to our customers.

“This change in service level is expected to better serve our ridership as the Province continues with its staged reopening plan,” stated Director of Community & Development Services Mark Jensen.

“Transit will be accepting debit and credit cards only to purchase passes and tickets,” added Transit Operations Supervisor Ash Patel. “Cash will only be accepted on buses for single trip payment with the exact fare required, to avoid the potential transfer of COVID-19. No change will be provided.”

The public is once again reminded that Transit should be used for essential travel only, and physical distancing of two meters (or six feet) should be respected at all times. Buses will continue to have seating cordoned off to ensure that this occurs. Customers are also reminded to now enter buses through the front doors and to use provided hand sanitizer. Passengers that are not feeling well and exhibit any symptoms of COVID-19 should not board any bus and are advised by Public Health to self-isolate.

Please be advised of the following Timmins Transit holiday schedule:

• December 24, 2019 - Regular service until 6:00 pm
• December 25, 2019 - No service
• December 26, 2019 - Sunday service
• January 1, 2020 - No service

Have a safe and happy holidays!

Please be advised that Timmins Transit buses will not be operating on Thanksgiving Day, Monday, October 14, 2019.

Regular transit services will resume on Tuesday, October 15, 2019.

Have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving!

Please note! Effective August 19, Timmins Transit is performing necessary repairs to our runway and as a result we will need to temporarily relocate the pick-up location at the terminal.

This will remain in effect until the repairs are complete. Please see diagram for the new temporary pick up locations. Route 31 will be on the North end of the runway and Route 37 & 38 will be on Spruce Street near the sidewalk and canopy at the ONR side of the building.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause!
