The City of Whitehorse will improve their transit system thanks to a combined investment of over $7.8 million from the federal and territorial governments.

Ten 40-foot fully accessible buses will be added to the existing fleet in Whitehorse between 2026 and 2028. The City's current fleet consists of 15 low-floor accessible buses that were purchased between 2008 and 2023. New buses will ensure efficiency and maintain service levels while helping to meet the needs of the growing city for residents and visitors. The additional buses will allow opportunities to improve routes, ensure unexpected maintenance can be accommodated, and will maximize the service life of the fleet for the city.
