Bus Passes

Bus Passes provide many fare payment options to complement your work, recreation or vacation schedule. With the Max 5 Pass and Superpass you'll save from 12% to 30% over cash fares using your weekly pass just twice a day.

For frequent users, the convenient full fare Monthly Bus Pass saves almost 38% over cash fares, if used just twice daily.

Using a Post Secondary Pass, qualifying Post Secondary students can take advantage of 50% savings each month, compared to full cash fare, used twice daily.

If you're eligible and show appropriate identification, a Reduced Fare Superpass or Reduced Fare Monthly Pass provides great savings for Children, High School Students and Senior Citizens. See the GoCard and Photo I.D. section for the eligibility requirements.

Using or exchanging old tickets:
Transit tickets can be used for 3 months after a fare change if you pay the cash difference. After the 3 month period, old tickets won't be accepted by bus operators, but you can exchange them for new ones by paying the cash difference at the following outlets, Monday through Friday:

Transfers

Free with your cash or ticket fare, a "Power Hour" transfer takes you wherever you want to go by transit for approximately 60 minutes! You can make stopovers along the way or even return trips on one fare - as long as you ride within the time limit shown on your transfer. If you're unsure of the expiry time, ask your driver. Then ride all you want until the time expires!

A transfer must be requested when you pay your fare and can only be used by the person to whom it was issued. Transfers are valid on any regular bus route on the date of issue and allow travel in any direction, including return trips on the same route, until the expiry time shown.

GoCards and Photo IDs

High School Students and Seniors must meet certain age and identification requirements to be eligible for reduced fares.

High School Students age 17 to 21 years attending a recognized Winnipeg High School full time must show a Transit GoCARD Photo ID at the time they pay their fare.

Photo IDs are available at the Fort Rouge Transit Base, 421 Osborne Street (Monday to Friday - 8:30am to 4:30pm). Proof of age is required for the Senior Citizen and GoCARD Photo IDs. Proof of attendance at a Winnipeg High School is also required for a Student GoCARD Photo ID The cost of the Photo ID is $3.00 (tax included).

Children who look older than their age may be asked by the Bus Operator for proof of age. "Under 17" cards are available from Winnipeg Transit for $3.00. Proof of age is required.
