Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) spring service changes will be in effect starting Sunday, April 30. These changes are part of the regular service adjustments ETS makes five times a year that include considerations for transit rider feedback, performance data and seasonal changes in ridership. This includes the cancellation of post-secondary school service until the start of the Fall 2023 term.

Starting April 30, this route will be cancelled due to not meeting ridership standards outlined in Transit Service Standards Procedures (Policy 539A). Alternative service between Jasper Place and Downtown will still be provided by Route 901, with a transfer to Route 5 for service to Jasper Ave.
