Orillia Transit
Orillia Transit is operated by Tok Transit Limited under contract to the City of Orillia, Ontario. Orillia Wheelchair Limousine Service (OWLS) is the name of the paratransit service.
History
Orillia has had transit service since the 1950s when a private operator, Orillia Transportation Company, started to provide local bus service to the city. Responsibility for the service was assumed by the City in 1975 and in 1978 a specialized transit service for persons with disabilities was introduced.
The initial operating contract was awarded to Penetang-Midland Coach Lines in 1976, and the contract eventually went to First Student Canada.
On July 1, 2017, Tok Transit Limited became the new contractor.
