Take ETS to Morgan Wallen at Commonwealth Stadium!

ETS is making it easier for riders to take transit to the upcoming Morgan Wallen concerts on September 12 and 13.

Ticket to Ride

Your concert ticket is your transit fare! As part of the ETS Ticket to Ride program, concert tickets will be accepted as valid transit fare up to 90 minutes before the concert start time and 90 minutes after the concert ends. If asked to show your fare, all riders need to do is show their concert ticket. There is no need to tap on or tap off at Arc validators.

For more information on Park & Ride locations and other transportation information, see Morgan Wallen: I'm the Problem Tour.

ETS Football Park & Ride

We’re excited to help Edmonton Elks fans get to each home game this season. On home game days, our Park & Ride buses provide direct service to Commonwealth Stadium from lots across the city.

We’re Hiring! Apply Now to Join our Team of LRT Mechanics!

Our LRT mechanics play a vital role in keeping our light rail vehicles safe and reliable by conducting inspections, performing preventative maintenance and carrying out repairs.

We are 100% self-sufficient, so all maintenance and repairs for Capital and Metro Line trains are done in-house. This work reduces train downtime for repairs, and saves taxpayers millions of dollars. Check out a CTV story that gives a behind-the-scenes look at how Edmonton keeps its LRT cars on track.

This position is perfect for individuals who are Red Seal mechanics and able to work nights and weekends, with the ability to transition to day shifts in the future. Currently, the 10-hour shifts being offered to new employees are:

3pm - 1:30am
8pm - 6:30am

We offer competitive pay and excellent benefits, including a pension plan, health benefits and three weeks of paid vacation. Paid training is provided to help new staff become a certified LRT mechanic.

If you are a proactive problem-solver with a passion for mechanics and a commitment to maintaining high standards, apply now! You’ll join a team that values safety, efficiency, and provides excellent service to Edmontonians.
