City council has hit the brakes on proposed service cuts to Calgary Transit. But on some routes, service late at night or on weekends was going to be cut. In its deliberations on adjustments to the 2018 budget, council voted Wednesday to spend $4 million to allow transit to maintain service. He cautions that not all of the proposed service cuts will be mitigated but Calgary Transit could decide to place vehicles on other routes with greater potential ridership. Evan Woolley proposed cutting the city's corporate communications budget to maintain transit service levels, but that motion was defeated by council.
