Neighbourhood Decision Making 2019
Neighbourhood Decision Making (NDM) is an opportunity for London residents to democratically decide how to spend a portion of the City’s budget on neighbourhood projects. The project ideas that you come up with and vote for can transform the culture, pulse, and even the physical appearance of our neighbourhood.

Just a reminder of bus service changes in our area starting September 1.
Service through the Orchard Park neighbourhood will be removed, leaving a small section of the area more than 400m to transit stop.
Route 9 changes will serve the intersection of Wonderland and Fanshawe Park Roads and provide two-way service along Limberlost.
Route 9 will no longer be interlined with Route 6 in the evenings and will operate to downtown during all time periods.
Route 31 will be modified to operate along Aldersbrook Road to the Hyde Park Power Centre. The route will now operate as a stand-alone route, no longer interlined with Route 19 and 32
