The list of routes facing cuts or service reductions across Winnipeg in 2018 has been released.
Last week the 2018 city budget revealed the city was looking at a rate hike and a reduction of services on 22 routes.
The city blamed the province’s choice to slash the 50/50 transit funding agreement.

“Elimination of this city-provincial partnership created a $10 million deficit in transit’s operating budget in 2018,” Mayor Brian Bowman said in a November statement. “This left us with a significant gap to fill, and something had to give in order for us to balance the budget.”
Winnipeg Transit released a report on Friday showing the at risk routes that stretch across the city from the University of Manitoba and the Grace Hospital to Grant Avenue and Transcona.
