Hi my name is Avni Adams and I work at the international office at Conestoga College.
I support international students in their transition to Canada and to Conestoga,
particularly with things like taking the bus, going grocery shopping,
finding housing, whatever you need that's what we're here for.
In this video, we're going to talk about how to take the bus.
Kitchener Waterloo has one transportation system called Grand River Transportation.
You can find them on their website GRT.CA
and we're gonna walk through all the steps
that'll help you get on the bus safely and get to where you need to be.
Your ONE Card, actually, is going to double as your bus pass as well.
Once you pick up your ONE Card on campus, you can go to the CSI office
where they will put a little fare sticker on your card
and that's it, you're done, you're ready for the bus!
It might be really helpful to download the GRT app,
it's called EasyGo and you can find it on iTunes or the Play Store on whatever
mobile device you have and on there you can find really important things like:
when is the next bus coming? What are the bus stops? How much are the tickets?
Everything that you would possibly need to know about taking the bus.
Plan your trip before you head out, it can be confusing to be in a new city
and under new transportation system, so using the app or using the website,
you can plan out exactly what buses you need to take, when you might need to change buses, and
how many stops you have to wait on before you get off the bus.
You probably want to get to the bus stop about five minutes
before your bus is scheduled to arrive.
At Conestoga College, we have a special place where you can wait
and maybe grab a coffee along the way.
You may have to wait in line to get on the bus, but once you enter through the
front doors all you have to do is show the bus driver your OneCard with the
fare sticker on there.
Don't be nervous if you're not sure where you're going, you can always ask the bus driver
or you can look to the flashing sign at the front of the bus that announces all the stops.
When you have reached your destination just exit the bus out of the back doors.
At the International office, we're here to support you in any way that you need
so please come by, see us, let us know how you're doing,
and let us know how we can help.
