Service Changes for August 31, 2025
Saskatoon Transit is rolling out service improvements for fall to improve reliability and address bus overcrowding beginning this September. Riders will benefit from more frequent service, school-focused trips and longer, articulated buses on high-traffic routes during peak times. Additional improvements will be introduced by October 2025 as new buses are on the road.
Route and Service Changes (in effect August 31, 2025)
- More trips to increase frequency in northeast neighbourhoods experiencing significant growth:
- Longer, articulated buses assigned to high-traffic routes such as Routes 10 and 43 – aligned with high school bell times – adding up to 50% more capacity to reduce overcrowding leading to full buses.
- Route 17: Added frequency between Stonebridge and USask.
- High School Route 340: New route expands service to Rosewood through Lakeview and Lakeridge for Holy Cross High School and Walter Murray Collegiate students, replacing the south portion of cancelled Route 338. Find High School Routes and trip options for your school.
- Coming soon! Additional service will be introduced by October 2025:
