When do the buses run?

The Boundary Transit System operates Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Where do the buses run?

The bus travels within Grand Forks, with trips to and from Greenwood on Fridays.

Fares

You may pay with cash (exact coin fare only, drivers carry no change), monthly bus pass, or one of the other types of pass available in your community, including BC Bus Pass and CNIB Pass where available.

Boarding the Bus

Have your fare ready when you board the bus, or display your entire Monthly or BC Bus Pass to the driver.

Appropriate Attire

• For safety reasons, drivers will refuse service to passengers not wearing shirts and footwear.
• The bus is a great way to get to and from the beach, lake or pool, but please make sure your clothes are dry when boarding.

Priority Seating

The priority seating up front on the bus is designated for people with disabilities, passengers with children in strollers and seniors—in that order. Please respect the priority seating designations, and be prepared to move if the driver asks you to.

Safety on the Bus

Please remain seated or hold onto one of the stanchions when the bus is in motion. Do not put your arms or elbows out of the window. Do not bring combustible materials such as wet-cell batteries and gasoline containers onto the bus. When you want to get off the bus, inform your driver of your stop. Make sure you give the driver plenty of time to pull over safely.

Getting off the Bus

After leaving the bus, wait until the bus pulls away and you have a clear view of any oncoming traffic before you cross the street. To get off the bus in rural areas with no designated bus stops, ask the driver to find a safe place to stop.

Passenger Responsibility

When your bus is approaching your stop, make sure you are in clear view of the driver and use the "transit wave" to alert the driver that you are waiting for that bus.

Have your fare ready when you get on the bus or display your entire monthly Pass to the driver. If you are eligible for discount fare, please display your ID.

If you are using a Walkman or other portable music player, please ensure you are not disturbing other passengers by keeping the volume down.

When darkness approaches, it becomes difficult for drivers to see people at bus stops, especially along unlit roads. Please take safety precautions by wearing light-coloured clothing, or clothing with reflective material.

Lost and Found

If you lose something on the bus, call Lost and Found at 442-8169. If you find something on the bus, give it to the driver, who will deliver it to Lost and Found.

Boundary Transit will keep articles in Lost and Found for up to 14 days, then send the unclaimed articles to a charitable organisation.
