Pelham Transit expanding
Beginning September 3, 2019, Pelham Transit will operate with a two bus system – the Pelham Circuit & the Pelham Connector. The two buses allow for consistent transit stops throughout Pelham and connections in Welland.
A new addition to the schedule are Niagara Region Transit stops at the Meridian Community Centre between 7-9 a.m. and 3-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. These stops are done during their route between Brock University and Niagara College. During these peak hours, Pelham Transit runs a half an hour service through Pelham on the 801: Pelham Circuit. Between 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. On Saturdays, Pelham Transit will run two routes.
The 801: Pelham Circuit is an hourly service from North Pelham through Fenwick to the Meridian Community Centre. This route has new stops at CannTrust, Sandra Dr. & Ker Cr E, Sandra Dr. & Ker Cr W, Sandra Dr. & Maple St, Canboro & Cream and Brewerton Blvd Park.
The 802: Pelham Connector is a half hour service from the Meridian Community Centre to Niagara College and Seaway Mall. Between Pelham Transit buses, there will be transfers available at no additional cost.
Pelham Transit now accepts and issues Niagara Region Transfers. To be issued a transfer, there will be an additional fee of $3 on top of the $3 fare for Pelham Transit. Transfers must be handed to the driver.
Pelham Transit remains free for all riders every Saturday. However, Niagara Region Transfer will not be available on Saturdays.
The fall 2019 Pelham Transit Schedules are available on the bus, Town Hall, and the Meridian Community Centre.
