WHITBY, ON – This holiday season, Durham Region Transit is making it easy to celebrate. On New Year’s Eve, after 8 p.m., residents and visitors to the Region can ride DRT for free! For those planning to stay out late, DRT is offering extended service, which includes late-night shuttles from GO Stations, until 3 a.m. For more information on DRT routes and schedules, please visit durhamregiontransit.com.
The free and extended New Year’s Eve service also applies to specialized services. As usual, trips on specialized services will be first come, first served. Trips may be reserved up to seven days in advance (based on availability), until 8 p.m. on December 30.
DRT’s free and extended service on New Year’s Eve would not be possible without the generous support from the Durham Regional Police Services Board and Ontario Power Generation. If you’re out celebrating, let DRT be your designated driver. Be good for goodness sake, and let DRT take you home safely!
