Transit Windsor ridership is down 13 per cent in the first half of the year compared to last year.

According to the city, a major factor are fewer international students attending post-secondary schools.

St. Clair College reported a 23 per cent decrease in fall enrollment this September compared to 2024 on the Windsor and Chatham campuses.

The decrease is trending province-wide, says Transit Windsor executive director James Chacko.

The city now faces the challenge of making up the loss of ridership in other demographics.
