To reflect a lower ridership demand, service on the following routes will be reduced:  

  • 4 UVic/Downtown  
  • 7 UVic/Downtown 
  • 8 Interurban/Tillicum Centre/Oak Bay 
  • 9 Royal Oak/UVic  
  • 12 University Heights/UVic 
  • 14 UVic/Vic General 
  • 21 Interurban/Downtown 
  • 26 Dockyard/UVic 
  • 39 Westhills/UVic 
  • 51 Langford/UVic 
  • 52 Colwood Exch/Bear Mtn (RRU service only) 
  • 76 Swartz Bay/UVic 

These changes will remain in effect until January 5, 2026, when service on the above routes will increase and there will be other changes made. 

We encourage our customers to use the Umo app, Google Transit or any other app of their choice for real-time bus tracking and planning your next transit journey.
