List of Edmonton Transit Service bus routes information


The Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) route system is the result of a transit strategy that was passed by city council on July 11, 2017.[1] The redesigned system is composed of:

  • Frequent routes operating at least every 15 minutes (at most times of day) in core areas of the city
  • Rapid routes connecting outer areas of the city to downtown and other major destinations (including LRT stations and post-secondary institutions)
  • Crosstown routes connecting outer quadrants of the city without operating through downtown
  • Local routes connecting neighbourhoods to local destinations and other routes
  • Community routes designed to connect seniors residences with nearby services.[2] The intention behind the redesign is to allow for simplified routes with increased frequency.[3]

Route numbers are assigned in a clockwise direction.[3] This redesigned bus network was originally scheduled to be implemented on August 30, 2020, but was postponed until April 25, 2021, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, to save approximately $3.7 million and defer tax increases for residents.[a][5][6] The system replaces the "Horizon 2000" transit plan, was approved by city council in July 1996 and put in place on June 29, 1997.
