Safety on Transit

Your safety is our number one priority.

If you see something, say something – report any unusual behaviour or incidents to a uniformed transit employee.

If you’re in immediate danger, call 9-1-1.

Passengers are expected to follow the Passenger Code of Conduct. Our drivers are expected to follow the Driver Code of Conduct.

In the event of a safety concern – the driver’s procedure is to:

• Stop the bus as soon as possible and not move until the situation is resolved
• Not get into a physical altercation
• Ask the person(s) in question to cease their actions or:
  • Warn them with removal from the bus and/or
  • Call for the RCMP to remove them
• Continue route service once the situation is resolved
• Write up an incident report of the event at end of shift
  • Transit leadership reviews the following morning

As a passenger, you can submit a report to transit following an incident. Please include:

• Date and time of incident
• Bus number/route
• Where you got on and off the bus

Please report incidents to [email protected] and/or 668-8396.

What does follow-up by Transit look like if they receive a report?

• We review security footage

• If an incident is severe enough, the City can warn or ban person(s) from transit services

Remember that safety is a shared responsibility, and your actions can contribute to a safer and more enjoyable transit experience for all passengers.
