The expansion of the Transit Windsor West End Terminal is complete.

The new terminal is located on the Hôtel‑Dieu Grace Healthcare (HDGH) campus on Prince Road.

Tecumseh Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) Andrew Dowie, members of Windsor City Council and administration were on hand to mark completion of the expansion on Tuesday.

“The expansion of the Transit Windsor West End Terminal is another example of how we are Investing Responsibly in infrastructure that delivers real benefits for residents, transit users, and our community. As Windsor continues to grow and evolve, it is important that we continue to make strategic investments that strengthen the services people rely on every day and prepare for and protect our future,” said Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens.

The completion of this $3.7 million project, supported by investments from the City of Windsor, the Government of Canada ($1.4 million), and the Province of Ontario ($1.2 million) through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) – Public Transit Infrastructure Stream, has increased the terminal’s capacity from six to nine bus bays, improving operational flexibility and supporting more efficient transit operations.

“Transit Windsor continues to invest in infrastructure, new routes, scheduling enhancements, and other service improvements that strengthen and modernize public transit for our customers. Investments in infrastructure are a key part of ensuring the system can meet the evolving needs of the community,” said Deputy Chief Administrative Officer Jelena Payne.

New operator facilities also constructed at the site are a significant enhancement to the transit system’s infrastructure, providing modern, accessible, and purpose-built spaces for frontline employees.

In addition to the new bus bays, the terminal now features an extended bus platform, new passenger shelters, benches, bicycle parking, and a dedicated bus operator facility. Designed with flexibility in mind, the updated facility can accommodate various bus sizes, supporting fleet modernization, service expansion, and the evolving needs of Windsor’s public transit system.

Construction was completed while maintaining daily transit operations and access to Hôtel‑Dieu Grace Healthcare.
