Saskatoon Transit fall route changes and reminders
Saskatoon Transit will introduce fall service changes across the transit network beginning Sunday, August 30, 2026. The changes coincide with the return to school and post-secondary classes and are part of Saskatoon Transit's regular seasonal service review process to respond to customer travel patterns and operational needs.
The fall service changes are designed to match service with changing travel demand, improve reliability and on-time performance, restore school-year service levels and add capacity where ridership is expected to increase.
Riders will benefit from:
- Additional frequency and capacity on busy routes and travel corridors, including Routes 2, 8, 17, 50, 55 and 60.
- Restored school-year and peak-period service on Routes 61, 63, 65, 83, high school routes, 529 and 543.
- Improved reliability and schedule performance on Routes 8, 50 and 55.
- Service adjustments that support growing demand from students, commuters and other transit users, including routing changes on Routes 16 and 17 near the University of Saskatchewan.
Reminder for Transit customers
September is one of Transit’s busiest time of year as customers return to school. Customers are encouraged to prepare before their first trip this fall:
- Check their route and schedule using the Transit app or Google Maps Transit, or at saskatoontransit.ca/routes.
- Review The Transit Code for expected customer behaviour on the bus.
- Allow extra travel time during the first week as customers adjust to the fall schedule. Consider alternate trip times as a back-up if your ideal trip is full.
Saskatoon Transit will closely monitor ridership, bus capacity, customer feedback and demand across the network, and make adjustments where needed to help support a safe, reliable and comfortable ride for customers.
