COVID-19: Health & Safety Protocols

As Alberta carefully progresses through Phase 2 of the Relaunch Strategy, the health and safety of our passengers, customers, and employees remains our top priority.

You can expect the same exemplary customer service as years prior, with the added comfort of our enhanced cleaning and safety program initiatives:

    • Face masks will be mandatory for all passengers/
    • Hand sanitizer avalible on all buses for passenger and staff use

Passenger Screening and Due Diligence

Passengers are reminded that they should not consider travelling if they are feeling unwell or are displaying symptoms of COVID-19.
For the safety and well-being of our passengers and staff, all passengers will be asked health and safety screening questions prior to boarding.
Should a passenger fail to pass the screening, they will be denied boarding. Passengers who develop symptoms while in Banff or Canmore are expected to contact Alberta Health Link by calling 811, as well as arrange for their own transport back to Calgary.
