Innisfil is growing! By 2034, we estimate that our population will reach over 63,000 residents. In order to meet our current and future needs, the Town of Innisfil is preparing a 10-year Transit Master Plan. This plan will revisit our current public transit system, Innisfil Transit, and go beyond. It’s time to Talk Transit, Innisfil!

Community engagement for the Transit Master Plan has ended. Thank you to all community members who participated.

  • Share Ontario OneFare (https://www.prestocard.ca/en/about/one-fare-transfers) is subsidizing the last mile connection from GO Transit.

    Thank you for your questions and suggestions,

    I have noted your comments on aspects around fare structure, regional integration, and pooling on rideshare services and will share them with the rest of the team working on the Transit Master Plan.

    To provide a bit of overall context on the development of the Transit Master Plan, we are currently looking for feedback on a number of options presented on the future of transit services in Innisfil. Once a preferred option is chosen, it will be refined based on the feedback obtained from the open houses, survey and other means of engagement. The Transit Master Plan that will be presented to Council in the fall will include more details on how transit services would work, including a Business Plan component, as well as guidance on how transit services should work, which could very well include guidance on how local transit services in Innisfil can be integrated with services provided by external agencies such as GO Transit.

    Best Regards,

    Can we vote agents this?

    Peters asked 5 months ago

    Thank you for your question,

    Public consultation helps develop what will be in the Transit Master Plan. Ultimately, the proposed Transit Master Plan, as informed by such public consultation, will be presented to Town Council by the fall of 2025, which could decide to approve the plan, request that revisions be made to it, or decline to adopt it as a Town policy.     

    We welcome you to share your perspectives on transit in Innisfil, be it based on your experiences using - or not using - Innisfil Transit (i.e. the Uber partnership), other transit services or forms of transportation and what you envision for the future of transit in Innisfil. The Get Involved Innisfil webpage for this project goes over community engagement opportunities - as seen on this webpage, you can also subscribe to get updates on this project. 

    Best Regards,

  • Share What is in the plan for innisfil and multi family homes and what is the policy. We were wondering about building a modular like home in the yard for an inlaw. I know how much shortage on rentals and I wondered if thus is legal? We are also on what i think is estate lots. Is there a difference for policy. We have 2 driveways. One off big bay point road and the main one off mccormick gate. Would we be able to get permits for mobile home.
