Join Roam – the Bow Valley’s premier transit provider!

Roam Transit, otherwise known as the Bow Valley Regional Transit Services Commission (BVRTSC), is a vital regional transit provider dedicated to offering sustainable, reliable, and accessible public transit throughout the Bow Valley – connecting Banff, Canmore, and Lake Louise.

Roam is committed to supporting both residents and visitors by delivering year-round and seasonal transit services to those wishing to explore the Bow Valley region without the use of a private vehicle. The organization plays a critical role in enhancing mobility, reducing environmental impact, alleviating traffic congestion, and improving the overall transit experience across the region.
