Bus Service in Penticton
Local bus service is provided by BC Transit. You can view route information and current schedules on the BC Transit website or download Schedules and Maps for handy reference.
Penticton Transit has a modern fleet of "low floor" transit buses that are fully accessible. Buses operate six days a week excluding statutory holidays. During summer, a lake-to-lake route is offered every Sunday and holiday from the last Sunday in June to Labour Day in September.
All accessible Penticton buses (except the Naramata bus) are equipped with bike racks that can carry up to two bicycles at a time.
Face Masks
Safety is our top priority. BC Transit has adjusted its face coverings policy and they are no longer mandatory on board buses. The organization supports riders who choose to continue wearing a face covering on board. For more details, visit BC Transit's COVID-19 update.
