Rider Guidelines
Monthly Bus Passes
Monthly passes, which feature unlimited rides for the month, are designed to help passengers save money on monthly transit expenses and also take advantage of a new federal tax credit. Using bus passes as income tax receipts, pass purchasers can claim a credit of 15.25 per cent on their income tax return in 2006 and 15.50 per cent in 2007, with parents able to claim passes for their children. Passes are available for purchase as of the 24th of each month from select ticket agents. Additional information on the federal tax credit is available from the Government of Canada.
Connections with GO Transit
Leave your car at home when commuting to/from work by GO train or bus. For only 50 cents, you may transfer to/from Milton Transit at the GO Station - just show your valid GO pass/ticket to the driver when boarding and deposit the fare.
Always fumbling for change? Try our monthly GO Transfer pass. For only $20, you have unlimited transfers to/from Milton Transit at the GO Station without having to deposit 50 cents for each ride.
