U-PASS

U-PASS

The Langara Students’ Union advocates bringing affordable public transportation to its members. The U-Pass is one of the core services provided by the LSU. Members who have paid their fees in full gain accessibility to 3-zone ridership on the Sky Trains, Bus, and Sea Bus per semester. They are given a Compass Card that is to be updated online every month once students have signed in and registered their card. The cost of a regular adult fare outside of the u-pass system through fare zones ranges from $91 to $170 per month. The U-Pass BC Program is the best alternative for students and all Students’ Association across Metro Vancouver are working together to ensure students pay a reasonable fare while traveling on the transit system.
