Milton Transit master plan

A major revamp of Milton Transit is nearing its final stages and now’s your chance for any last-minute suggestions.

Milton Transit wants public input on its draft plan to improve transit for local residents, visitors, workers, and students.

The Milton Transit Five-Year Service Plan reviewed services and will recommend transit changes within the Town’s larger transportation network.

“Connecting our community through transit will be increasingly important as Milton works toward smart density, placemaking, mobility and economic development,” said a spokesperson in a news release.

The main goal is to address short-, medium- and long-term sustainable transit requirements in growth areas, including: Boyne, Derry Green, Britannia, Agerton/Trafalgar, the Major Transit Station Area (MTSA) and Milton Education Village (MEV).

After initial public input and a review of existing services, the draft plan to address local travel needs from 2024-2029 is now open for comment.

The survey asks for input on the proposed network and service levels compared to the current offerings. It also asks demographic questions to learn more about riders and non-riders.

“Your survey results will give the project team important feedback on the draft plan. This will help shape the vision, goals, and design of a future transit service in Milton.”

The survey is available online and in a fillable PDF, which can be submitted by email, mail or in person at Town Hall.
