Bruce Power to expand free bus tour program

Building on a successful summer program at its visitors’ centre, Bruce Power will continue to offer free bus tours to pre-arranged community groups, year-round.
 

“We’re interested in hosting service clubs, social organizations, municipal groups, even senior high school classes,” said James Scongack, vice-president, corporate affairs. “We’ve found the bus tours to be very popular and an excellent way to engage our neighbouring communities and the public.”

 

By the time the summer program ends Sept. 3, staff will have delivered more than 100 bus tours to more than 3,000 participants through July and August. In addition, more than 2,000 visitors will have stopped by the visitors’ centre during the past two months to view the exhibit hall and take in an hourly presentation.
 

“The visitors’ centre provides a unique opportunity for the public to learn more about Bruce Power’s multi-year investment plan and future role in Ontario’s electricity system,” said Scongack. “It also provides an avenue for the public to provide important feedback.”
 

Open to the public this summer every day except Sundays and statutory holidays, the visitors' centre returns to its normal hours of operation, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., effective Sept. 6.
