Alberta Bus Service
Did you know that there are bus services throughout the province, between various municipalities? Contact information is also included for each carrier, so that you can easily visit their website or give them a call to book your ticket. Some carriers provide daily service, while others are less frequent.
Passenger transportation service providers may require an Operating Authority Certificate. These services may include charter, scheduled service, private, industrial, or non-profit bus operations. Each carrier does need to apply to the Province for a permit before servicing a route, or changing service to a route. However, market demand dictates service and frequency.
For a list of carriers with Scheduled Operating Authority Certificates, please visit the link below. An downloadable file is available at the bottom of the page under Resources.
