Students Introduced To City Bus System

Whitehorse, Yukon – Students at Yukon College will have a tour around the city of Whitehorse thanks to the generous contribution of City of Whitehorse Transit. The City of Whitehorse Transit is providing a city bus and driver for the day for the City Tour component of the Yukon College Orientation Program. The activity is to introduce new students who are from rural and international areas to the city bus system as well as the popular spots in the city.

The City of Whitehorse Transit met with the Yukon College Student Union last year to collaboratively design a scheduled route that would attract more users to the transit system. The City Tour is another endeavor by the City to show it supports transit users.
