Did you know you can flag the bus?

If you're not sure where your stop is and you'd like to jump on the bus, you can wave and hop on board! (Standard fares still apply).

If it's dark outside, make sure you use a light so you're seen.

With darker mornings and evenings it’s time to let your light shine!

Please use a flashlight (or your phone' light) while at your bus stop to make sure our Operators see you in the dark.

Heads up, riders!

Due to construction, all eastbound Core buses will temporarily stop at the Kentville Legion on River Street instead of the Aberdeen (EHS) stop in Kentville.

Watch for signs or check our detour map before you travel.

Kings Transit became two-time "Best Float" winning champs at the Annapolis Valley Exhibition in Lawrencetown last night!

A special thanks to our dedicated team of bubble blowers and our spunky seahorse for decorating and walking in the parade! It was a wonderful event with an amazing crowd!

It’s hot this summer, stay hydrated!

KTA passengers are welcome to bring drinks on the bus as long as they are in a spill proof container.

Takeout cups can spill and make sticky messes for our team, so they can’t come on the bus.

Thanks for riding with us and caring for the buses with us!
