Route 1 Express Bus ends Sept. 28
The Route 1 Express bus (Sarnia to Grand Bend via Lambton Shores) that runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday will END Sunday, September 28, 2025. Although scheduled to continue until the end of October, there is not enough ridership to support its continuation this year beyond September.
NOTE: This service change DOES NOT affect the regular Route 1 bus!
Route 2 – Monday, Sept. 22
Due to mechanical issues and the need to switch buses, there will be up to a 30 minute delay on Route 2 heading to London which will also affect the return trip from London to Grand Bend. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Update to Stranded Passenger Policy
Effective immediately, we can no longer provide taxi shuttles for passengers travelling from their point-of-origin (starting point – i.e. Sarnia) when the bus is full. Taxis will still be used when:
- A bus breaks down, and there is no spare bus for the RETURN TRIP HOME.
- A driver calls in sick, and there is no replacement driver for the RETURN TRIP HOME.
- The LAST bus on a route is full, and as a result, there are stranded passengers for the RETURN TRIP HOME.
In other words, taxis will ONLY be called out if/when there is a bus service issue and a passenger is returning home.
We no longer call in taxis for passengers who have not yet left their home town to go anywhere – including work – for any reason.
This is a RETURN TRIP service only.
