As Region of Waterloo council works on the next budget, Grand River Transit is asking for an expansion.
This expansion would include hiring 57 employees and buying an extra 19 buses, and would see new express routes on Fischer-Hallman, and more, reports today’s Record.
Council already said OK to the plan in principle in 2010.
The expansion would mean a fare increase and a transit tax increase of $4.1 million in 2011 — that tax is currently at $44 million.
