Spruce Grove commuter transit service

The City of Spruce Grove is pleased to offer a commuter transit service to Edmonton, in partnership with the City of Edmonton and the Edmonton Transit System (ETS).

This service is an affordable and environmentally-friendly alternative to the costs of driving into the city and parking downtown.

Ideal for post-secondary students, and for those who work in Edmonton, Route 197 is an express service that that runs during peak morning and afternoon hours. The route includes stops at NAIT and Grant MacEwan, through the downtown core and across the river to the University of Alberta.

Park and Ride is available at the parking lot west of the Agrena.

Starting September 2, 2008, Route 197 will operate every 20 minutes during morning and afternoon peak hours, starting at 5:35 a.m. and 3:20 p.m. to accommodate the large number of riders who are choosing public transit. Get your new schedule at the same locations where you purchase your pass.
