Routes 6C, 7A, and 9 will be on detour after 9 p.m. between Parkhill and Trent University.

The Armour Road bus stops at Parkhill Road, at Dunlop Street, and Vinette Steet will be temporarily out of service. Customers should proceed to the corner of Armour Road at Spencleys Lane for service.

Route 6C and Route 9 trips will not be able to access Armour Road. These trips will continue to serve Trent University at Gzowski.

Route 6C Sherbrooke

Late night Route 6C Sherbrooke trips will not be able to access Armour Road. Eastbound Route 6C trips will travel on Water Street from McDonnel Street to Nassau Mills Road, turn right and travel over the bridge to resume the regular route to the Gzowski loop bus stop before heading back to Trent at Bata.

For Route 6C trips, a shuttle will be available from the transit stop on Water Street opposite Tim Horton’s south of Nassau Mills Road for customers to access Armour Road.

Route 7A Lansdowne

Eastbound Route 7A Lansdowne trips will travel north on Armour Road to Swanston Avenue, turn right to Snelgrove Road, turn left to Parkhill Road, turn right to Leahy’s Lane, turn left to Spencelys Lane, turn left to Armour Road and then turn right to resume the regular route. Westbound trips will follow the same routing in the reverse direction.

Route 9 Parkhill

Route 9 Parkhill trips will not be able to access Armour Road. Eastbound trips will travel east on Parkhill Road to Water Street to Nassau Mills Road, then turn right and head over the bridge to resume the regular route to the Gzowski loop bus stop.

Westbound trips will leave Trent at Gzowski following the normal route out to Armour Road and continue over the bridge at Nassau Mills Road to travel south on Water Street. Continuing south on George Street, trips will proceed through the Parkhill Road intersection and then turn left at Antrim Street to Water Street, turn left to Parkhill Road, and then turn left to resume service at the westbound bus stop on Parkhill Road before George Street.
