Province Boosts Public Transit Across Ontario McGuinty Government Helps Municipal Transit Systems Meet Growing Demand

Municipal transit systems across Ontario are putting 470 new buses on the road to improve public transit service, increase ridership and accessibility, and improve air quality.

Through the Ontario Bus Replacement Program (OBRP), the Ontario government is investing $50 million to help 47 municipalities across the province replace aging buses in their transit fleets.

OBRP provides long-term, sustainable transit funding that municipalities can use to replace both conventional and specialized transit buses.
