🛫 Flying out of YEG? Save the $60 taxi fare and take the 747!
Route 747 is the ultimate high-speed hack between Century Park and YEG.
It is a direct link to the runway that’s faster and cheaper than a cab. Just tap and go!

ETS has officially retired paper tickets, but don't let yours go to waste. Until March 31, 2026, you can swap unused paper tickets 1-for-1 for the new tickets.
Once you've made the switch, just tap the new ticket on the green validators!

REPOST: One of the most seamless ways we've seen to pay for transit is by enabling tap to pay on your smartwatch.

A new silver bike rack is on the front of an ETS bus spotted in the wild.
Have you tried the new bike racks on ETS busses? The old racks can't take bikes with tires wider than 2.35" but it looks like these ones can accommodate a wider tire. #yegbike #takeETS #yegTransit
