MiWay announces service increases to meet growing demand

MiWay is enhancing its services to better meet the demands of public transit users in Mississauga.

City services | August 14, 2024

Starting on Monday, Sept. 2, 2024, MiWay is introducing service changes to improve the customer service delivery:

  • A new Burnhamthorpe Express Route 126 between the University of Toronto Mississauga and the Kipling Bus Terminal in Toronto.
  • Service improvements on Routes 44 and 110 to better serve the University of Toronto Mississauga campus.
  • More buses on busy routes to alleviate overcrowding.

New Route 126 Burnhamthorpe Express

Starting in September, the Route 126 Burnhamthorpe Express will offer express transit services on weekdays, connecting the University of Toronto Mississauga with the Kipling Bus Terminal in Toronto. It’s scheduled to operate every 17 minutes at peak times in the morning and afternoon, complementing the existing Route 26 Burnhamthorpe service with improved weekday and weekend service frequencies. With the introduction of the new 126 Burnhamthorpe Express, Route 76 Burnhamthorpe will be cancelled to prevent service duplication.

Improved service to the University of Toronto Mississauga

To give students more travel options to and from the UTM campus MiWay is launching a new express route and increasing the service frequency on Route 44 Mississauga Road and Route 110 University Express. These service frequency improvements will help meet the increased customer demand during the school year.

More buses on busy routes to alleviate overcrowding

With increased ridership demand and the availability of additional service hours that were approved by City Council at the beginning of the year, the routes below will have increased service:

  • 5 Dixie (weekdays)
  • 26 Burnhamthorpe (daily)
  • 35 Eglinton (daily)
  • 42 Derry (weekends)
  • 43 Matheson (weekdays)
  • 44 Mississauga Road (weekdays)
  • 110 University Express (weekdays)
