Passengers line up for the 321 White Rock bus

Every season, we implement bus service changes to provide service where it’s needed based on ridership patterns.

Starting Sept. 1 as part of Fall Service Changes, you’ll see more frequent service on 53 bus routes across Metro Vancouver. That means shorter wait times, more room onboard buses, and more transit options.

We’re also bringing back more service on routes 44 UBC, 143 SFU, 145 SFU, and 245 Capilano University, and service on route 9 to UBC on weekdays.

These service increases improve access to and from post-secondary schools, industrial areas, and some of the busiest and most overcrowded corridors in Metro Vancouver — including Vancouver, UBC, Surrey, Langley, Burnaby, and New Westminster.

This boost in service is made possible by the 2025 Investment Plan, which is delivering the largest increase in bus service since 2018.
