An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) route system is the result of a transit strategy that was passed by city council on July 11, 2017. The redesigned system is composed of: * 9 frequent routes operating at least every 15 minutes (at most times of day) in core areas of the city * 13 rapid routes connecting outer areas of the city to downtown and other major destinations (including LRT stations and post-secondary institutions) * 6 crosstown routes connecting outer quadrants of the city without operating through downtown * 84 local routes connecting neighbourhoods to local destinations and other routes * 9 community routes designed to connect seniors residences with nearby services. The intention behind the redesign is to allow for simplified routes with increased frequency.

  • The Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) route system is the result of a transit strategy that was passed by city council on July 11, 2017. The redesigned system is composed of: * 9 frequent routes operating at least every 15 minutes (at most times of day) in core areas of the city * 13 rapid routes connecting outer areas of the city to downtown and other major destinations (including LRT stations and post-secondary institutions) * 6 crosstown routes connecting outer quadrants of the city without operating through downtown * 84 local routes connecting neighbourhoods to local destinations and other routes * 9 community routes designed to connect seniors residences with nearby services. The intention behind the redesign is to allow for simplified routes with increased frequency. Route numbers are assigned in a clockwise direction. This redesigned bus network was originally scheduled to be implemented on August 30, 2020, but was postponed until April 25, 2021, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, to save approximately $3.7 million and defer tax increases for residents. The system replaces the "Horizon 2000" transit plan, was approved by city council in July 1996 and put in place on June 29, 1997. (en)
