Give your car a vacation and leave the driving to Roam this summer!
Starting May 18, all Banff routes will lead to the Transit Hub. Catch a ride on the Banff local routes, Minnewanka route, and Banff-Canmore route, as well as the

Because Route 2 will go to the Transit Hub, the Wolf and Beaver stop and Otter Street stop will be moved. Look for the new stops at Moose & Muskrat North and Moose & Muskrat South.
There will also be
20-minute frequency to Sulphur Mountain and
