Fort Sask Transit Welcomes New Buses and the Arc Card

Fort Sask Transit (FST) is excited to announce the February arrival of new buses, offering a more reliable and refreshed travel experience for our riders, and the upcoming launch of the innovative Arc fare payment system.

The new buses will replace the current aging fleet and are set to become the new face of FST. Keep an eye out for their distinctive look as they hit the streets.

Embracing digital innovation, Arc will revolutionize fare payments within FST, offering a contactless, reloadable card that streamlines transactions and expedites the boarding process. This system ensures that FST remains adaptive, making public transportation more accessible and efficient, perfectly aligned with the evolving needs of our community.

We are not merely adapting to growth; we are anticipating and shaping the future of transit to be more responsive, inclusive, and user-friendly," says Lindsey Radford, Transit Supervisor, Fort Sask Transit.

As our city continues to grow and diversify, FST is dedicated to ensuring that access to transportation is inclusive, supporting all residents regardless of whether they own a vehicle, by choice or necessity.
