Ride Transit Program participants can now use Arc, the regional fare payment system, on Edmonton Transit Service. To get started, participants can pick up an Arc information package, including a free Arc card and instructions on setting up an Arc account with the Ride Transit fare, at City facilities selling Ride Transit passes. 

Need help with Arc? Drop in sessions are available at select City recreation centres and the Edmonton Service Centre to answer questions and set up Arc accounts on the spot.  

Visit Arc for the Ride Transit program page for more information. 

The Ride Transit Program provides greater access to Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) by reducing financial barriers for individuals and families in Edmonton. Through a partnership with the Government of Alberta, this program provides monthly passes to eligible Edmontonians at a subsidized rate.

Please note that Ride transit passes are non-transferable and intended for use only by the eligible Ride transit participant.

If you are a first-time applicant, please visit New Applications for more information.
