On March 16, 2021 Metrolinx hosted a virtual open house for Whitby residents on the Durham-Scarborough Bus Rapid Transit project. We received 72 meaningful questions and comments from the community – we were able to answer just under half of those during the live portion of the event. We are committed to answering the questions we were unable to get to during the virtual session, and will be posting answers at the bottom of this page. If you registered for the event, you will receive an e-mail once the answers are available to view.
We are committed to fostering open, consistent and transparent dialogue with the community as we work to move this important transit project forward. Metrolinx will continue to analyze refinements to the preliminary design in order to respond to recent feedback received. We want to answer your questions and work with you to make the Durham-Scarborough BRT a valued part of your community.
