GOVA Transit will provide Canada Day Celebration shuttle service to Science North on July 1, with buses departing the Downtown Transit Hub and Southridge Mall Stop 5833 (former TSC Hardware entrance), every 30 minutes from 11:45 a.m. to 9:45 p.m. Fare is $1 per person and includes the return trip.  

At the end of the fireworks show at Science North, GOVA shuttle buses will wait on Ramsey Lake Road, adjacent to the Science North parking lot, to return residents to the Downtown Transit Terminal or to Southridge Mall. We ask that you be patient as buses will depart once full, and will return, as needed, to transport more people.
