On August 18, 2024, Calgary Transit is expanding its On Demand transit service into four new zones. This expansion is a way to introduce public transportation into communities that don’t yet have the ridership for regular, fixed route bus service. The areas that will see this new On Demand service are:
- Ambleton in the northwest (will be added to existing Carrington/Livingston On Demand service)

An additional On Demand zone at the University of Calgary’s Spy Hill campus will be launched August 26, closer to the start of the fall semester.
On Demand service allows customers to book a trip, as needed, between their community and nearby amenities or transit hubs, where they can connect with the larger transit network. Trips are booked through an easy-to-use app, “On Demand Calgary Transit,” that creates routes as they’re booked, ensuring customers can get where they need to go quickly.
Details on how to use the On Demand service can be found at calgarytransit.com/OnDemand.
