Township of Selwyn Offers Free Transit Rider Workshops
The Township of Selwyn, in partnership with GreenUP, is offering free transit rider workshops for community members interested in learning how to use public transit with confidence.
These hands-on, low-pressure workshops are designed to introduce participants to the basics of riding the bus and developing a valuable life skill that supports life-long independence and mobility. Participants will learn how to plan a trip, board the bus, manage transfers, and navigate transit with ease.
Workshops will take place on Thursday, February 12, 2026, at the following locations:
- Curve Lake Cultural Centre (1024 Mississauga St., Curve Lake)
- 10:00 a.m.
- 10:30 a.m.
- Lakefield Community Care Office (40 Rabbit St., Lakefield)
- 3:00 p.m.
- 3:30 p.m.
Registration is not required but is encouraged. Interested participants can register in advance using the online registration form found at www.selwyntownship.ca/thelink. All participants will be entered into a draw to win one free 10-ride Link bus pass!
The workshops support awareness and use of The Link, Selwyn Township’s rural transit service. The Link is currently a pilot project funded by the Province of Ontario until March 31, 2026. Selwyn Township Council will make a final decision regarding the future of the service in February 2026.
