History

Route 11 used to have its eastern terminus at Blair and its western terminus at Bayshore. It was often late because of the route's long length: 1hr 10min during non-peak times and as much as 1hr 40min during rush hour. A reason for this is that it went all the way through-town, crossing Downtown and making frequent stops. The route was split into route 11 (then known as route 2) to the west of the Rideau Centre and route 12 to the east.

Headway

Route 11 runs every 20 minutes during weekdays and Saturdays, with service increasing to every 10 min during rush hour. 30 min service is provided on Sundays.^[2]
