Local tips
Renfrew's centre is at 115 Plaunt Street South, a block from Raglan Street, the town's main street. The most important thing to know is the schedule: DriveTest lists a seasonal, part-time timetable. From May to October it opens Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; from November to April only Monday and Tuesday. Both seasons run 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., with a lunch closure in between. Since winter hours start on November 1, slots can be scarce. Around the centre, expect a small-town downtown: two-lane streets, on-street parking and pedestrians on Raglan Street, with signals at Munroe Avenue, Renfrew Avenue West and the Hall Avenue/Veterans Memorial Boulevard junction. Central Public School and Renfrew Collegiate Institute are both about 300 metres away, so watch for school zones. Highways 60 and 132 at the edge of town carry faster traffic. Renfrew also runs a travel point in Arnprior, which may be another option.
