Windsor tunnel bus to Detroit shutting down Aug. 31

State of play: Windsor is shutting it down as of Aug. 31.

• The city's other cross-border bus to Detroit for special events, such as select concerts and sporting events, will continue through mid-December.

Catch up quick: Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens cut the service in his 2025 budget because he said the city could no longer afford it. He also cited trade tensions with the United States, CBC News reported.

• Windsor City Council tried to maintain the route by raising the fare to $20, but Dilkens vetoed the move earlier this year, triggering the six-month process of winding it down.

What's next: City Councillor Renaldo Agostino told a Windsor radio station this week he's working on a solution for the special events bus.
