Not everyone has 3 hours to watch Regional of Waterloo Council sessions. So twice a month Chevon brings you the highlights to help you stay up to date on the decisions that matter to your community. On Jan 24th, 2024 Council approved the following initiatives:
New hybrid buses will give residents affordable, climate-friendly transit Regional Council is investing $43.2 million in 36 new hybrid buses to grow and modernize Grand River Transit’s fleet. The buses will be ordered now and delivered in early 2025. These buses will help GRT expand service in response to record ridership, as well as replace older vehicles. All new GRT buses are either hybrid or electric, instead of diesel.
Region will explore more sites for affordable housing projects More Region-owned sites will be considered for affordable housing projects, including parking lots, vacant properties, and redeveloped buildings. Regional Council has directed staff to report back on possible locations and project concepts, including potential partners.
New transit station for Conestoga College Regional Council has approved plans to build a new Grand River Transit station at Conestoga College’s Doon Campus in Kitchener. The new bus platforms and heated shelters will improve the customer experience for Conestoga students, staff and the neighbouring community. The project is set to finish at the end of 2026.
Moving forward with upgrades for Doon Heritage Village Doon Heritage Village is moving forward with major site upgrades that will increase accessibility and ensure year-round programming for residents. These upgrades mean heat in the buildings can switch from carbon-emitting oil and propane fuels to modern electric heat. Doon Heritage Village is an open-air museum located at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum and shows life in the early 1900s.
