I finnished the map for routes running seven days a week until atleast midnight, in Sudbury, for my project. Check it out at

I am very impressed. Sudbury provides service until 12:30am seven days a week even out to rural towns outside the city.

Sorry VID, but Thunder Bay routes end early on Sunday, so I had no routes to map for TB.

We have no transit on Sunday after 10 because no one uses transit on Sunday after 8.

List of things to do in Thunder Bay on Sunday after 10pm:

Go to Mac's
Go to Walmart
Stay home because everything but Mac's and Walmart is closed after 10pm on a Sunday

10 pm is still fairly late for a city that size to be running buses on a Sunday. Most stop running between 6 and 8 pm, and I believe some mid-sized cities have no Sunday service at all...

You forgot Tim's and McDonald's. :haha:
Or you can walk to the 24hr Shoppers at Intercity. But that's not really an option for a lot of people since the buses don't run that late. ;)

Seriously though - there is no real reason to have buses running that late on a Sunday here because it is a Sunday night. The only place where people might need to be picked up late is the movie theatre. So I guess maybe one of the mainline, crosstown buses could stay in service later... but the ridership would be abysmal since many people avoid public transit in this city anyways.

Neither the Mainline nor Crosstown go near Silvercity! They could probably get decent ridership if they ran a bus along Memorial and Mainline between terminals all night and maybe a bus between PA and the University but I doubt the union would want drivers out that late. The last run of the day does see a bit of a spike in ridership, at least on Mainline. I've seen the 11:40 departure with no one on it and a 12:20 departure with a handful of people many times. Extending it could benefit those riders, but it might also just make them wait longer to get the bus and you'd be running more empty buses at night. :shrug:

I've walked to the Shoppers at 3am before, btw. :P Didn't see a single person on the way there or back.
