The Southwest Transitway (Rapid Transit) is now official open to the public. The transitway will provide Winnipeggers fast and reliable transportation options between the downtown and the southwest part of the city.
The total cost of the project is $138 million. The Government of Canada is funding $17.5 million from the Public Transit Capital Trust. The Province of Manitoba is sharing the balance of the project costs with the City of Winnipeg.
