Route 2 will continue to travel southbound from Wellington Street via Bank Street, Laurier Avenue, and Lyon Street, while all northbound service for routes 1, 2, 4 and 7 will remain on Kent Street to Laurier Avenue and Bank Street. Temporary bus stops will be installed along O’Connor Street. These detours will continue until the Bank Street closures are lifted.
