The Health and Active Living Plaza (HALP) is opening on October 17, 2025, in the Town of East Gwillimbury and YRT can take you there!

There are multiple transit options to get to the HALP:

• Route 50 – Queensway: Now servicing the HALP
• On-Request North-Central: YRT’s on-demand, ride-sharing service
• On-Request 65+: For seniors traveling within 5 kilometres of their home
• Mobility On-Request Paratransit: York Region’s door-to-door, shared ride, accessible public transit service for people with disabilities

We’ve launched a new and improved Lost and Found process to make it easier for you to report your lost items.

If you’ve misplaced something on a YRT vehicle or at a facility, simply fill out our new online Lost and Found form with details about your item, where you lost it, and when. Our team will do their best to locate it for you! 

For those who prefer direct contact, the option to call to report your item is still available. For more information please visit the Lost and Found page. 

Starting July 21, the Live Chat tool (in the bottom right corner) will have a new feature! Before starting a chat, you'll be able to choose the topic you need help with from a menu. This will make it easier for you to find answers, even outside of Live Chat operating hours. Of course, you can still chat with a Customer Service Representative during regular Live Chat operating hours. We're here to help!

Try it out and let us know what you think! There is an opportunity at the end of the chat to...
