Grand River Transit’s 2025-2030 Business Plan is an ambitious plan with many exciting goals, one of which is establishing a Frequent Transit Network. On 16 core routes in Cambridge, Kitchener, and Waterloo, the bus would arrive every 10 minutes on weekdays from 7 a.m. - 7 p.m., and every 15 minutes all other times.

It’s hard to overstate how transformational this would be to our transit network. Increasing frequencies across the board all-day will create a more seamless, convenient, and efficient network, enabling transit to be more competitive with driving.

This post is the first in a series explaining why Waterloo Region needs a Frequent Transit Network, how we can get there, and everything in between. Let’s start at the why.

This person stole our bins and our neighbours bin as well. Honestly dint even think people would steal bins. Hope you are having fun with our bins!!!
Since we lost both our blue bins, will the city give new ones if we show this proof?

Was walking my dog when a scooter went by with a sign on the back that read “mosquito control stay back 50 meters”. It’s hard on a sidewalk to keep back any distance so I was concerned. it all looked a little sus but then I googled and found this article from a few years ago with the same sign and scooter. Posting here to save anyone else a minor panic: https://kitchener.citynews.ca/2024/08/01/public-health-using-motor-scooters-to-apply-mosquito-larvicide-in-the-region/

I am working on a project for school and hoping to get some insight into what farmers in our area do when they need temporary help. Example , a hobby farm with a few animals / livestock - owners want to go away for a weekend - where do they find help if they don’t have friends / family who is experienced with farms ?

Hi, we are visiting KW area for a few weeks, late July to mid August. Looking for suggestions for fun things to do. Must be kid friendly, we have a 14 year old.

Is there a weight limit to our green bins? Our freezer was left open so a bunch of stuff thawed and therefore spoiled so we have to toss it all. Our bin is full to the top and pretty heavy. Can the trucks be trusted to lift heavy loads in those bins? I have a probably irrational fear of it spilling all over the street in front of our house.

Can anyone recommend where to buy wholesale shipping supplies? Specifically cellophane bags and poly mailers I think!

New small business looking to expand to shipping through Etsy and trying my best to keep costs low

TIA!

Hey guys I’m about to take the go train for the first time to the jays game tomorrow. I just had a few questions in terms of the ticketing. I’m going with three of my friends and I saw the “weekday group pass option” I’m just wondering if anybody knows how this works and if it includes the fare for both ways, just nervous because it’s my first time going alone

Can anyone recommend a good practitioner? I also live with agoraphobia so it would either need to be Uptown or Midtown - or virtual would work and probably be best for me.

It seems like there are a lot of different individuals and groups offering assessments, and I'm not sure where to start. Probably given my situation I will go private vs OHIP - but I want to make sure I am working with a good service provider. Any insight would help, thank you.

I tore my ACL 2 years ago and recently injured the same knee again. My doctor suspects a meniscus tear and referred me for an MRI and an orthopedic surgeon 2.5 months ago, but I still haven't received any calls.

Is there a way to check which hospital has my MRI referral, my waitlist status, or speed up the process? I feel having the MRI first would help the orthopedic surgeon decide whether I need reconstruction.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Gonna be heading down to Veld and gonna have a couple extra seats available

Hey there, my mom has a wig that she needs some work done to and she is having a heck of a time finding someone who works on them? Does anyone out there do this or can point me in the right direction?

Wondering if anyone has free that they don’t need, or cheap gasket seal large storage containers for sale. Please and thank you. Kitchener, Cambridge, Waterloo, even Guelph. Can pick up anytime.

Anyone know of a good spa/esthetician for a guy to get a facial for the first time in the region? Not looking to break the bank but want all my black heads extracted.

Thanks!
