NEWS RELEASE
TOWN OF COLLINGWOOD
***********************
The Town of Collingwood is committed to providing all people with consistent opportunity and access to all Town goods, services, and facilities while ensuring that policies, procedures, and practices are provided promptly and address integration, independence, dignity, and equal opportunity. 

The town recognizes that accessibility is essential to build on our unique profile as a major tourist destination, a retirement community, and a community that attracts businesses. 

To ensure the needs of residents who require accessible transportation are met, in addition to our accessible buses, the town offers Transit PLUS taxi service, with a more customized door-to-door transportation solution. Transit PLUS provides accessible transit service for residents of Wasaga Beach, Clearview, and Collingwood. Pre-registration is required by contacting Landmark Bus at 705-446-1196 or reserveST@landmarkbus.com

The town wants to hear from current and potential Transit PLUS users and is consulting with the Accessibility Advisory Committee to learn about the potential options residents are interested in.

Please visit the project page at engage.collingwood.ca/accessible-taxi to take a brief survey. Printed copies are also available at Town Hall, 97 Hurontario Street.

The deadline for survey submissions is 4 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 18, 2024.
