School Bus
Mulgrave's school bus service offers students a safe and reliable way of getting to and from school from many locations across the North Shore and into Vancouver. It also helps to reduce traffic and our collective environmental footprint while instilling independence in children.
Our school community also has access to a carpool app to connect with nearby families to arrange regular or ad hoc carpooling.
We have added new bus stops for the 2024-25 school year, including one in Lynn Valley (which is a free bus stop).
Routes 1 to 4 include a free bus stop. To register for these stops, please email us at transportation@mulgrave.com. Locations are indicated in the 'Bus Routes' section below.

We have truly enjoyed watching our daughter’s independence blossom from her experience riding the school bus. The daily ride has become the most favorite part of her day. She knows she is helping the environment and she making a lot of new friends along the way. As parents, we know the bus is the safest option for transportation and it gives us two hours back in our day. For working parents that is priceless. The bus app provides the exact location of the bus and the arrival time, making the entire process seamless. We couldn’t recommend the bus more. Seeing our daughter with a huge smile on her face as the bus drives away is one of the best feelings in the world.
