Comox Valley Regional District

Public Transit in the Comox Valley

The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) partners with BC Transit to provide transit services in the Comox Valley. BC Transit contracts Keolis Canada to operate the service on a day-to-day basis. The CVRD and BC Transit work together to establish service levels, fares, budgets, and future transit priorities, while community feedback and regional growth trends help inform planning and future service improvements.

See BC Transit’s Comox Valley Transit System website for:

Our transit system serves most of the Comox Valley and links up with the Campbell River transit system at the Oyster River and Regional District of Nanaimo Transit at Deep Bay.

Available for high-school and college students in the Comox Valley Regional Transit System, a Student Semester Pass can be loaded to a student’s Umo Mobility app or reloadable Umo card at the point of purchase. Student Semester Passes are date bound and align with the school semesters between January and April, May and August, September and December. Note: These passes can only be purchased in person.

A Student Dual Semester Pass is also available for North Island College Students only. It is valid for travel in the Campbell River and Comox Valley Regional transit systems.

Student Semester and Dual Semester Passes are only available from a select group of in-person retail vendors.

The Emergency Transit Assistance Program

Offered in partnership with United Way BC, the ETAP will distribute up to 5,000 free single ride transit tokens annually through local community organizations. This program is specifically targeted at residents in urgent need of transportation for emergency, employment, education, medical, and other essential purposes.

For more information on the new Emergency Transit Assistance Program, please contact United Way BC.

The CVRD GO Program

The CVRD GO Program offers a 50 per cent discount on 30-day transit passes for up to 150 low-income qualified residents over a six-month period, helping those who require more regular transit access but do not qualify for provincial discount programs such as the BC Bus Pass. The CVRD is working with local community organizations to target this program towards residents in need.
