Peterborough Transit and GO Transit Service Alerts
Peterborough Transit riders are required to wear face coverings (masks) in accordance with the Peterborough Public Health directive. If you see someone who isn't wearing a face covering, please be kind. Under the directive, there are exceptions, and not all disabilities and medical conditions are visable.
Although we will try to update this page as soon as we get new information, there may be some cases where route delays and temporary detours will not be posted here. Please follow @MakeItHomePTBO on Twitter for the most up-to-date information.
