Project Overview
Route 4/4A Chinguacousy is one of the busiest conventional bus routes within the City of Brampton. As a result of increased ridership along the Chinguacousy Road corridor, a new Züm service be implemented to accommodate this demand. This new Züm service along the Chinguacousy Road corridor is in line with the recommendations found in Brampton Transit's latest five-year business plan (2023-2027), as well as the City of Brampton’s Transportation Master Plan (2015).
Chinguacousy Züm will connect Cassie Campbell Recreation Centre at Sandalwood Parkway to the Bramalea GO Station on Steeles Avenue via Chinguacousy Road and Steeles Avenue. See planned route map below:
