Putting VIA's Better Bus Plan in Motion

VIA’s Better Bus Plan is designed to deliver faster, more direct service on traditional bus routes and expand VIA Link on-demand service by evaluating VIA’s existing services to identify potential changes that could improve our transit system and create more options to get you where you want to go. The Better Bus Plan includes service improvements that were implemented in April 2005.
