    • A single bus can eliminate up to 50 single-occupancy vehicles.
    • One busload of passengers saves 9 tons of air pollution each year.

  • Transit Windsor used low sulphur diesel years prior to government legislation, and diesel engines are modified to reduce particulate matter using CAM converter.

  • New bus purchases have the most current emission standards.

  • Bike racks are added to our total accessible buses in an effort to combine two modes of environmentally friendly transportation.

  • Transit Windsor participates in many community events such as Earth Day and Clean Air Day.
