Description

Description

The City of Whitehorse is continuing to expand its transit fleet by acquiring five 40-foot, fully accessible buses in 2026 and 2027. Three new buses will be added in 2026 to improve service during peak transit hours, enabling the system to better meet high demand by increasing frequency and reliability. Route coverage will also be expanded to ensure more consistent and timely service, particularly during periods of heavy ridership. The two buses planned for late 2026 or very early 2027 will replace existing units that were originally purchased between 2013 and 2015 and, at the time of replacement, will have logged more than 1,000,000 kms of service and reached the end of their useful life. Replacing these aging buses will ensure fleet reliability and continued service quality as the City and ridership grows.
