TransLink has announced a number of increases in bus service along 91Ô­´´ routes, mostly resulting in shorter wait times between buses.

The changes are part of the regular transit service changes that take place four times a year – in January, April, June, and September – based on changes in need, either permanently or on a seasonal basis.

There are no seasonal changes for the 91Ô­´´ area, but a number of service increases were announced, including:

• Every 15-18 minutes heading towards 91Ô­´´ Centre from 6-7 p.m. (up from every 18-22 minutes)

364 91Ô­´´ Centre/Scottsdale, increase Monday to Friday:

• Every 15 minutes towards 91Ô­´´ Centre 7-8 a.m. (up from every 20 minutes)

There are also increases on the route on Saturday:

• Running every 20 minutes towards Surrey Central from 4-5 p.m. (from 30 minutes)

The 503 Aldergrove/Surrey Central Station route is seeing a number of adjustments, most notably:

• Buses from 91Ô­´´ Centre towards Surrey Central will leave every 6-8 minutes 6:30 a.m.-7:30 a.m. (up from 6-10 minutes)

• Saturdays will see times cut through the mornings and afternoons to early evenings both towards 91Ô­´´ Centre and Surrey Central, with buses leaving every 10-12 minutes.

• Sunday and holiday trips from Surrey Central towards 91Ô­´´ Centre will be extended to Aldergrove at more times.

The 531 White Rock Centre to Willowbrook will start earlier

All the changes take effect on April 21.
