OC Transpo’s Bus Plan Fails Audit

OC Transpo’s “New Ways to Bus” overhaul is in serious trouble after an audit exposed a shocking lack of planning — built on outdated data, ignoring traffic changes, and cutting 70,000 hours of service to save $10 million. Weekday rush hour routes are consistently underperforming, with 30% of longer routes off by 10% or more, and nearly 90% of routes lacking realistic scheduling. Despite tweaks, 35 routes still miss the mark, and bus shortages, aging fleets, and staffing gaps mean the plan simply can’t be delivered — the audit calls it a failure to set priorities or realistic standards.
