Stop impacts: Blair Station stop I relocation (UPDATED): October 10 2025 - Updated on October 9, 2026 Until further notice, stop I at Blair Station will be temporarily closed. This closure is due to construction work being performed on the north bus platform, as part of the Blair Station Elevator Replacement Project. Impacts Service for routes 12, 15, 23, 24, 26, 39, N39, and 42 will be relocated two stops east to stop G during the work period. No pedestrian access to north bus platform from the west side of the station. Use the accessible walkway along north platform East. To assist customers with accessing the station, shuttle buses will operate 24/7 between Gloucester Centre Mall, stop B and stop H. During the hours of midnight and 6 am, the shuttle bus service will extend to Telesat Court. What else to expect Customers should expect a heavier presence of construction activity along the pedestrian walkway at the station. Starting March 2, 2026, part of the north bus platform and the lower level east doors will be closed for several months to allow work on the new elevator system. Customers will use the adjacent south doors to access stops F, G, and H using a temporary platform installed next to the existing platform. This will not affect the stop locations or service. Other minor impacts to platforms and walkways on certain workdays may occur. Construction crews and flaggers will guide customers as required.

How we measure →

This is the running reliability measure, not the report-card measure: for each stretch between two stops, how long buses really took against how long the timetable allows, over 26 counted days at all hours. It shows which stretches run behind, not how often. The report-card measure replaces it as soon as it has enough weekdays.

Example: a one-kilometre stretch the timetable runs at 20 km/h takes 3 minutes; if buses averaged 15 km/h it took 4, so 1 minute is lost there.
