Winnipeg preparing people for transit route changes with new video
A Winnipeg Transit bus outfitted with information about the new primary network is shown on Osborne Steet on May 1, 2025. (Owen Swinn/CTV News Winnipeg) The end of June isn't far away, which means the city's new transit network will soon be taking full effect. The new primary network and its feeder routes for Winnipeg Transit will launch on June 29. In preparation for the major overhaul, the city released an explainer video Wednesday to get people prepared. The goal is to run transit buses on primary routes that are considered simpler, straighter and with fewer stops. The hope is this will allow transit to run faster so people will have to wait less and reach their destinations faster. At the same time, the feeder route system is designed to hit community connector routes to avoid congested areas, allowing buses to stay on time. The feeder routes will connect to the primary network. In the city's video, people are told they need to know three things ahead of the launch. Firstly, people are being told bus stops will change. 'Stops may be added, removed, or shifted to a new location,' the video said. People are told to monitor temporary signs at stops to see the changes. Secondly, schedules for the new routes are already available online, allowing people to plan their travels. Lastly, the entire system map is also available online. City council approved the changes last year and they come with a $20.4 million price tag. - With files from CTV's Katherine Dow
