LISTEN TO THE RECORDING

Hi, this is Heather Dixon with the Town of Olds Family and Community Support Services. I'm here to share some important updates about the Sunshine Bus service starting May 1st.

The Town of Olds recognizes the need for affordable transportation in our community and we have listened to your feedback. As a result, we're pleased to announce some changes to make the Sunshine Bus Service more accessible to everyone.

Beginning May 1st, seniors and individuals with mobility challenges can continue booking the bus in advance. Our first-come, first-served booking system remains in place to ensure fairness.

Additionally, we're introducing same-day booking for the general public, subject to availability. To reserve your spot, simply call our bus booking phone line Monday through Friday, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, at 403.556.8003.

For your convenience, one-way trips are priced at $5.00 each, payable in cash to the driver. If you prefer a more flexible option, Punch Passes are available for purchase at select town facilities. To find out where you can get yours, visit our website at www.olds.ca/accessible-transportation.

Thank you.
