On the Oakville Transit bus home from work and looking for a place to order dinner? Wondering if the Toronto Blue Jays won that afternoon?
Local residents won’t have to wait until they get home to jump on the internet and find those answers or just to surf the web. The Town of Oakville is making free Wi-Fi available now on all Oakville Transit buses.
The free Wi-Fi is another way the Town continues to enhance connectivity for the community through its Digital Oakville Plan.
The free network is available on all conventional and specialized buses and can be used by all bus riders who board with a Wi-Fi enabled device such as a smartphone, laptop computer or tablet.
“In today’s digital world, easy and equitable access to online information, tools and services is more important than ever,” said Oakville Mayor Rob Burton. “By accessing free Wi-Fi on Oakville Transit, customers will be able to use their transit time for leisure or work by connecting and engaging with family, friends or coworkers during their journey.
“The Digital Oakville Plan continues to guide the town’s efforts in our commitment to keep our community connected through digital innovation.”
