Construction near Durham’s Whitby campus and the resulting DRT detour continue until September 1.


Route 917

From Monday, July 3 until Friday, September 1, westbound buses operate along their regular path to Champlain Avenue and Thornton Road South, then detour:

northward along Thornton South; and then
westward along Stellar Drive to Champlain,
resuming their regular path westward along Stellar.

Westbound buses skip their regular stops

  • on Champlain Avenue beyond Thornton Road South and beside #946 Champlain and
  • on Durham College’s Whitby campus.

Instead, westbound buses drop off or pick up passengers at temporary stops

  • on Champlain Avenue at Thornton Road South and
  • on Stellar Drive across from Champlain Avenue.

Eastbound buses reverse the westbound detour routing.
