In March of 2023, Sarnia Transit’s service schedule moved to a 40-minute frequency and the proposed change during that transition Point Edward service remained on its standard 30-minute loop., once every hour. With it remaining on the old 30-minute loop, it creates fewer connections and longer wait times at Northgate Terminal. It has been recommended to move from the existing schedule of once per hour to every 80 minutes, which will bring Point Edward’s service into alignment with the majority of Sarnia Transit’s routes. The additional 10 minutes added to the duration of each trip provides the opportunity to expand the current route. This expansion will allow residents of Point Edward a direct route to the hospital as well as Sarnia’s downtown core. Additionally, aligning an 80-minute frequency with Sarnia’s 40-minute service allows for direct connections with other buses.
Provided below are the details of the service comparison between the current service and the proposed changes:
