The City of Saskatoon is reminding bus riders that a new Transit Bylaw in coming into play on September 1st.

A new advertising campaign for The Transit Code will be on display across the transit system and throughout the community, such as on buses, at terminals and shelters, online, on social media, through radio advertising and in community outreach activities.

It aims to help customers understand expected behaviour on transit in simple language.

The new Code focuses on the importance of respecting others, paying your fare, offering priority seating when needed, keeping aisles clear and helping keep transit spaces clean.

Saskatoon Transit and Saskatoon Police Service will also be conducting education and fare validation activities, so riders can expect to see a more visible police presence at terminals, on buses and at other high-ridership locations.
