These are the new peak hours and busy times on transit

Thank you to all the essential workers – and to everyone for doing your part, staying home, and staying safe.

With limited service available at this time, we’re asking all of our customers to use transit for essential trips only – especially at peaks hours and busy times – so space remains available for those who need it most.

What are peak hours? These are the times during the day when there’s the most demand and when transit’s the busiest.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, these hours have changed as when and where we travel, and who is travelling on transit has changed. Please keep these new peak hours and busy times in mind when planning your transit trip. If you need to take transit, please limit your travel to outside these hours so space is available for essential workers.
