Need some help getting around?

Kingston Transit has recently partnered with Google Maps and Transit to help bring you a smoother riding experience.

On the Google Maps and Transit app you are able to accurately plan your bus route, and see, in real time, where the busses are.

Ride Kingston Transit with your student card.

Eligibility

All new and returning full-time Kingston students are eligible for the bus pass from the period of September 1, 2023, to August 31, 2024.

How it will work

SLC student cards will be stickered with the Kingston Transit pass information, including the eligibility period.  To ride the bus, you will be required to always show your stickered SLC student card.  If you don’t have your student card yet, you can fill out a request form through the URSLC platform.

If you do not have a student card by September 1st, you will NOT be able to use the bus pass, until you have followed the link above to receive your card. Submit your information for student card as soon as possible!

Cost

The bus pass fee is $190 for the year. This fee has been applied to all eligible students’ accounts. If you are not enrolled full-time, you will not receive a bus pass, and the fee does not apply to you.

Benefits of a universal bus pass

  • Saving students money (students save about $524 on the price of a pass over the year)

  • Offers students a reliable way to get home safely when they need it

  • Reduces greenhouse gas emissions and supports sustainability

  • Improved student-focused transit services (through our partnership with the city)

  • Reduces the demand for on-campus parking

Bus Pass for September 2022

In the fall of 2022, the universal bus pass for all full time Kingston students was reinstated. We spent more than two months surveying 962 students about their thoughts on the universal bus pass. By an overwhelming majority students spoke in favour of a return to a universal pass for the fall for all students. Below you will see the results of that survey.
