BUS PASSES

BUYING AN ETS BUS PASS

ETS passes are available at a subsidized price through your child’s school. Students can buy a subsidized ETS pass as long as they aren’t provided with other subsidized transportation.

Students must pay the full cost of a monthly bus pass, even if:

• they don’t ride the bus every day
• they buy the pass mid-month

If you need help paying for a bus pass, the City of Edmonton’s Ride Transit Program reduces financial barriers for individuals and families in Edmonton. Learn more about eligibility and how to apply for the program.

REPLACING A BUS PASS

Students can buy a replacement ETS pass at the school office.

USING AN ETS BUS PASS

ETS student bus passes are valid for unlimited travel with Edmonton Transit Service, including during statutory holidays.
