School Special Bus Routes

Many schools around the city are served by regular ETS bus routes. Some bus routes have extra trips that are timed for students at a particular school. ETS also operates School Special bus routes on school days to supplement regular bus routes.

How to Read the Schedules

The schedule special timetable format is different from regular route brochures. Please read the schedule carefully before planning a trip.

Intersections in the left hand column are timing points that represent when the bus will depart that location.

Check the route map for its location. Make sure to scroll down to make sure you see all of the route times. Note: the letters on the table represent the bus route’s major timing points. These letters are not included in the timetable.

Moving from left to right, each column indicates when a bus will stop at that intersection.

The timetable uses the 24-hour clock.
13:00 = 1pm
14:00 = 2pm
15:00 = 3pm
16:00 = 4pm
Days of the week when each trip runs are located under each column.
U = Tuesday
T = Thursday

Please note: school special route schedules are subject to change without notice. Please refer to the trip planner, the third-party Transit app or Google Maps to look up options using the most up to date schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can we get a School Special bus route in my neighbourhood?

School Special bus routes are intended to manage overcrowding on regular ETS bus routes caused by a large number of students travelling between a neighbourhood and a school. All customers are welcome to use both School Special and regular routes. ETS does not provide School Special bus routes to every school and students may need to make transfers to get to their designated school.

How do you decide where and when to run School Special bus routes?

ETS works closely with the local school boards to set the timing of the School Special bus route. The number and location of School Special bus routes are reviewed every year and adjustments are made based on the number of customers along the route. When a route does not meet a minimum number of customers over a period of time, the service is moved to another area with higher demand. Please note: yellow school bus service is managed directly by the local school boards, not ETS.

Are there School Special bus routes for areas served by On Demand Transit?

There are 37 neighbourhoods served by a new flexible On Demand Transit service rather than a regular bus route as of April 25, 2021.

School Special bus routes are not available in the neighbourhoods. However, junior high and high school students, as well as post-secondary students, can use the On Demand Transit service to support their school travel. Their experience would be the same as youth in neighbourhoods with regular bus service. They can travel with other customers using the On Demand Transit service to a designated transit hub where they would transfer to regular bus routes destined for their school.

What should new customers know?
