The SAFEBUS PROGRAM is the formalization of a community partnership between the City of Regina Transit Department and the Regina Police Service.

While our core function is to operate our public transportation system, we have always made ourselves available to assist any citizen in time of need. 

Historically this has included accident victims, sick or injured people, lost or frightened people, victims of crime, Alzheimer sufferers, and newcomers or tourists. 

Regina Transit SafeBus provides a safe haven for anyone who is in need of help. If you are lost, hurt or in trouble, flag down a Regina Transit bus, or get on at any bus stop. Trained transit personnel have direct 911 access and can help mobilize the appropriate community resources to provide assistance.

Parents are encouraged to teach their children that they
DO NOT need money to get on a SafeBus. 

If a child is lost, cold, frightened, or hurt and requires the assistance of a Transit SafeBus, they should stay on the sidewalk and hold their hand up in the direction of the approaching bus with the palm facing out. The operator will recognize this as a sign of distress and stop to help.

Many children like to wave at the bus as it passes by. For this reason, parents are encouraged to teach their children the difference between a simple wave, and a call of distress.
