So work finally got underway on the Windsor Bus Terminal. The new station is being built on the site of the former Canadian Tire store in downtown Windsor. The building will look similar to the Art Gallery when completed, and nothing like the “proposed” urban village that is “supposed” to be built on the vacant land to the rear.
The Bus Terminal is scheduled to open in the spring, while the Ubran Village is likely just talk.

Wow how things change! I worked the bus terminal years ago about 1970-something while with Barnes Security and so did a few of my chums back then. As security guards we had to patrol the platforms and the interior, the restrooms and the little restaurant hourly. The best thing about that job was to go to the TBQ for supper on the way home!
well here we are the new bus terminal is completed and all we got was vending machines a subway or something would have been nice
