Lansdowne will follow the winter route, travelling over the Maria Street bridge rather than the covered bridge at the Peterborough Lift Lock. Until spring, Route 7 will operate along Rogers Street and Maria Street between Hunter Street East and Ashburnham Drive.

To support this seasonal change, the following bus stops will be in use for the winter season:

  • Rogers Street at Sophia Street for southbound trips 

  • Maria Street at Armour Road for eastbound trips 

The following stops that are served by Route 7 in the spring and summer will be temporarily suspended: 

  • Hunter Street at Times Square (this stop will continue to be served by Route 4 Weller) 

  • Hunter Street at Lift Lock 

  • Ashburnham Drive at Lift Lock 

  • Ashburnham Drive at Maniece Avenue 

Starting Monday, a new weekday afternoon trip will be added to Route 9 Parkhill to support student boardings from St. Peter’s Catholic Secondary School in response to afternoon peak ridership. The trip will depart from the Parkhill stop on Medical Drive at 2:30 p.m., continuing to Gzowski College at Trent University.
