Transit services will officially be moved in house to the municipality on Friday afternoon.

The RMWB decided to move transit services in house on Feb. 19, after the 2014 Municipal Transit Audit identified several issues with Tok Transit’s service.

“We’re proud to welcome the transit operators that are joining our organization as part of the transition,” said Manager of Tranist Services Tony O’Doherty. “While we don’t anticipate any delays, complex transitions of this nature can sometimes impact service delivery”

He adds that riders should give themselves just a little more time to get around on Friday and check the transit website for any updates or issues.

The RMWB says there will be no immediate changes to routes, schedules or fares.

It does however plan to optimize the existing service and the municipality is also exploring the possibility of express routes in 2015.
