Public Transit Coming to Caledon – Mayfield West

The Town of Caledon and Brampton Transit have partnered to introduce a new transit line in the Mayfield West area, starting September 3, 2019. The extension of Route 81 – Mayfield West will include 11 new bus stops along Kennedy Road with service running during peak commuter hours (Monday to Friday, 6am-9am and 3pm-6pm).

“Public transit in Caledon is something that we’ve been working towards, and it’s now here,” said Mayor Allan Thompson. “Not only will it help alleviate traffic congestion and is also good for the environment. Expansion of services and routes will be based on results of this first phase which means that transit will continue to be a priority for the Town.”

The Town will continue to explore additional public transit across Caledon that are cost-effective, environmentally sustainable and convenient for residents as outlined in the Town’s Transit Feasibility Study. The study was conducted over a course of two years and involved extensive surveying, discussions and presentations with residents, partners, agencies and regulatory bodies. The next phase will introduce a transit line in Bolton later this year.

The bus will be operated by Brampton Transit, as well as fares, schedules and timetables. To see all bus stops and to learn more about Route 81 – Mayfield West visit: caledon.ca/transit.
