Consultation has concluded.

Durham Region - Bus Shelter Designs

Durham Region and Durham Region Transit are installing new bus shelters on median islands along Highway 2 (Kingston Road and Dundas Street), from Altona Road in Pickering to Des Newman Boulevard in Whitby (excluding Pickering Village), which will be accessible, environmentally sustainable and cost effective. Passenger amenities along with sustainability features for the new design will be the same regardless of the design option.

We are looking for feedback to help improve the current bus shelters along the PULSE Highway 2 route.
