Whistler Transit System
"Be Part of the Solution...." is the motto of Whistler's municipal bus system that keeps growing every year. Whistler's transit system is a partnership with BC Transit and Whistler Transit Ltd. and services almost three million riders a year, which is a huge number for a town of this size. Whistler has a new fleet of 20 white, blue and green hydrogen fuel cell BC Transit buses and the remainder use modern diesel technology.
Whistler Transit System
The resort transit system operates a FREE Village shuttle that provides transportation from Village hotels and condos to the ski lifts every 6-12 minutes in the winter and every 15-30 minutes in the spring, summer and fall throughout the day and evening.
For all other areas outside the Village, but within Whistler, there is a regular municipal transit service. The fare is $2.00 per trip; tickets and one-day passes are available at a discounted rate and are sold throughout the Village including the Whistler Visitor Info Centre. BC Transit also offers a commuter bus from Squamish ($5.00 per trip) and Pemberton ($3.00 per trip) to Whistler’s Gondola Transit Exchange, making four return trips daily.
