EDMONTON TRANSIT SERVICE
Bus Service Support

Towing | Inspectors | Light Duty | Heavy / Special Duty | Security/ Peace Officers | Engineering and Maintenance

Finally, a rebuild and enhancement of this section!
This has been a long time coming.
This page will cover all of what we have managed to document for the vehicle fleet that is used to support ETS's bus operations. While not as interesting as the LRT side of things, there's still a lot of variety that can be seen. While the sections listed above are pretty straight forward here is a quick overview:
Towing- ETS tow trucks, plus City of Edmonton and contractors towing buses
Inspectors- The inspectors vehicles over the years
Light Duty- Basic cars, trucks and vans
Heavy/ Special Duty- Often this will be pick up trucks with special boxes, anything larger than a pick up truck etc.
Security and Peace Officers- This will mostly be Peace Officers, but this will include anything we have from before the Peace Officers program
Engineering and Maintenance- This is up in the air what I want to do with it. Engineering and Maintenance seems to be a generic term applied to a lot of newer equipment that has shown up. A lot are associated with LRT, however there seems to be crossover between Engineering and Maintenance for LRT and for Bus. I might even move Engineering and Maintenance into Light Duty.

In lieu of a roster at this point in time, the CPTDB Wiki has a roster at: https://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php/Edmonton_Transit_System_Support_Vehicles

Finally, this link will explain the numbering scheme used on the vehicle fleet.
