511 Zum Steeles is abus rapid transit route inBrampton,Ontario, Canada. The final corridor outlined in Phase 1 started service on November 26, 2012.
The route runs from theBrampton Gateway Terminal atSteeles Avenue andHurontario Street toHumber College North Campus atFinch Avenue West andHighway 27 in Toronto with connections to the plannedLine 6 Finch West line and various express bus services, viaBramalea GO Train Station. Though largely industrial through Brampton, Steeles Avenue sees bus service every six minutes on current route 11. This is the only planned corridor to operate almost entirely within Brampton city limits. In September 2015, limited service on 511 Zum Steeles was extended toLisgar GO Station operating only on weekdays. Eventually, full service on the entire route were implemented.
The route was suspended past Chinguacousy Road in March 2021, after nine drivers tested positive for COVID-19. It was noted that the route led to a "large logistics business," in the midst of an outbreak.[1] Shortly after, the outbreak was confirmed to beAmazon. Peel Public Health Medical Officer of Health Dr.Lawrence Loh denied there was a connection between the two outbreaks.[2]
On December 22, 2022, 511 Zum Steeles along with its local route 11/11A Steeles entered the newly builtbus terminal atBramalea GO Station. This marks the first time that these routes directly serviced the station, as previously they stopped on-street at the intersection of Steeles and Bramalea.
