Durham Region Transit (DRT) is the regional public transit operator in Durham Region, Ontario, Canada, east of Toronto. Its headquarters are at 110 Westney Road South in Ajax, Ontario, and there are regional centres in Ajax, Whitby, and Oshawa. DRT was formed by the merger of Ajax/Pickering Transit, Whitby Transit, Oshawa Transit, and Clarington Transit on January 1, 2006.

Overview

DRT's operation is overseen by the Durham Region Transit Commission, consisting of the members of Durham Region Council. In April 2007, the Durham Region Transit Executive Committee was created to take over day-to-day oversight responsibilities, with the full Commission meeting on a limited basis as needed. The executive committee consists of the Regional Chair and one councillor or mayor from each of the eight Durham Region municipalities as appointed by each municipality.

DRT is organized into three operating divisions:

• Raleigh serving the City of Oshawa, Municipality of Clarington, and the Town of Whitby
• Westney serving the Town of Ajax, City of Pickering and the Town of Whitby
• DRT On-Demand & Specialized Services provide service to rural and urban areas without bus service as well as for the disabled

Most of DRT's operational and maintenance services are provided by regional staff who are members of Unifor Local 222.

DRT service in the Town of Whitby was initially operated under the terms of an existing Whitby Transit contract with Trentway-Wagar. A new contract that combined Brock, Scugog & Uxbridge operations with Whitby operations was awarded to Trentway-Wagar in 2011. The drivers and maintenance staff were therefore employees of Trentway-Wagar. This contract ended on June 30, 2016.^[3] A new contract with Pacific Western Transit (PWT) was signed in 2017. As of December 31, 2023, this contract has ended and all transit service in Whitby has been transitioned to Durham Region Transit operators and staff.^[4]

Routes

On July 28, 2008, DRT introduced a unified route number system using a three digit format, with the first digit indicating the municipality:

• 100s: Pickering
• 200s: Ajax
• 300s: Whitby/Brooklin
• 400s: Oshawa/Courtice
• 500s: Clarington/Bowmanville
• 600s: Uxbridge
• 900s: Regional/DRT PULSE

All Durham Region Transit routes are wheelchair-accessible (). As of January 2, 2024, the following routes are in operation at DRT:^[5]
