Peterborough Transit Study
Consultation has concluded,
The City of Peterborough is resuming the Transit Study following a pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Public engagement has been an integral part of the study to date. Each phase the project will continue to include an opportunity to inform, collaborate with, and involve the community and transit stakeholders.
The Transit Study has three interconnected components that will shape our community’s transit service now and in the future:
- The Transit Route Review will redesign the route network in the near term to improve connectivity and service and lay a foundation that supports future growth and service enhancements; and
- The Long-Term Transit Growth strategy will set the vision for the future of Peterborough Transit and identify the resources to achieve it; and
- The Downtown Transit Hub plan will identify options to improve or relocate the existing transit terminal.
The Study Background Tab below provides a description of each of the Transit Study Projects.

How does the interactive map work?

- Place a green pin on the map to show where you travel from
- Place a red pin on the map to show the places you travel to most often
- Place a yellow pin on the map to show the places you travel to less often
