The Reynolds Street portion of Route 14/14A is being replaced with Oakville Transit's on-demand service Home to Hub. The on-demand service will provide connections to the Oakville GO station or downtown Oakville (Church and Dunn).

Residents can also use Route 11 which operates Monday to Friday every 30 minutes during peak and every 60 minutes in off-peak, which travels along Reynolds to MacDonald (one block north of Wyndham Manor). Read on to learn more about Home to Hub; Oakville's on demand service.

Oakville Transit "Home to Hub" Service

Home to Hub is a shared, on-demand transit service that uses smaller capacity buses.

Home to Hub conveniently picks you up/drops you off at the end of your driveway to get you to and from Downtown( Church/Dunn), or Oakville Go where you can connect with regular fixed route transit service.

This change provides transit access on weekends for more parts of the Ward 3.  Home to Hub is more cost-effective than full transit routes and we hope it will expand to more parts of the Ward in 2020.

The details of this service, including how to register and book a ride (two-hour (2) advance booking requirement), are available on the Oakville Transit website.
