🛫 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!

Most people know you can text 31100 for bus times, but almost nobody uses the ‘SAVE’ feature. You can actually give your stops nicknames like ‘HOME’ or ‘WORK.’ One word, one text, and you’re in the know.

Sometimes getting your arc card out is annoying, but you don't always have to do it. If placed right, tapping on through a wallet or glove works just as well, plus then you don't have to get your hands cold

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

A temporary bus stop by the 87 Avenue LRT construction area. There's a small metal trash bin by the bench.

Whoever thought of putting this portable trash bin by the relocated temporary bus stop, kudos!
I bet it's easier than the concrete train bin cylinders. And still prevents littering.

Seen at Elmwood tonight by the LRT tracks ramp - more pavement work on the road along 87 Ave!
Pretty awesome to see the constant progress of the construction here!

We were out at Taste of Edmonton today collecting ideas from transit riders on how we can best improve our system!

These ideas will inform our future advocacy, and be sent to the City
