Local Transit is now On-Demand!
On January 3, 2023, Parkland Transit transitioned to a local regional on-demand system. In a partnership with the Town of Stony Plain and City of Spruce Grove, the on-demand system provides access across the Tri-Municipal region as one large zone servicing Parkland Village, Acheson, Stony Plain, and Spruce Grove.
With over 400 pick-up/drop-off locations in the area, travelling around the Tri-Municipal Region has never been easier! Scroll down to view a map of On-Demand Stop Locations.
There are two types of on-demand pick-up/drop-off locations - marked and unmarked. Marked stops have a transit bus stop sign. The remaining locations are unmarked (they are "virtual" – meaning they don't have a bus stop sign).
On-demand local transit services within Stony Plain and Spruce Grove will operate from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday. Acheson and Parkland Village will continue to operate from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. and from 2:15 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. The on-demand service applies to local transit only and does not apply to the Edmonton commuter route from Spruce Grove.
