Look for closures/detours

Find any major closures, construction, detours or planned service disruptions that can impact your travel time. Knowing this information can help you select the best route to take.

Find a map

Our overall system map outlines all the different routes in the city, where they start, travel and connect you to. If you would like a more specific map, route maps are available to show you where the individual routes lead to.


Paying

We have a variety of payment options to make your trip as convenient as possible. Remember if you need to take a combination of bus routes or the CTrain and are paying by cash or paper tickets, ask your bus driver for a transfer or hold on to your validated ticket from the CTrain. Your transfer is valid for 90 minutes.

 

Unplanned disruptions 

Just like your personal vehicle, our buses and CTrains can be impacted by traffic, detours, accidents, emergencies and more. We update our website, Twitter feed, Calgary Transit App and CTrain platform signs to alert you of any unforeseen circumstances that may arise.
