TeleBUS
TeleBUS is Winnipeg Transit’s automated schedule information system.
How TeleBUS Works
- Call 287-RIDE (7433).
- A user-friendly menu helps you find current or future schedule times.
- Every bus stop in Winnipeg has been assigned a five-digit bus stop number, which is how TeleBUS identifies your specific bus stop.
- To find schedule information, enter (on your TouchTone phone) or say the five-digit bus stop number. You will be prompted through the system to find the information you need.
- Have your stop number handy when you call.
If you do not have your 5 digit stop number, you can call Transit Information at 311 for schedule information or visit our website’s schedules page.

Transit Guide and TeleBUS Directory
All bus stop numbers are listed in the MTS Yellow pages “Transit Guide and TeleBUS Directory.” Numbers are listed by the street they appear on, and the streets are listed alphabetically in the directory.
For example, if you are near Portage Place and you want to take the 24 Ness Express going west toward St. James, follow these steps:
- Locate the listing for Portage Ave. and select the right direction of travel – Westbound.
- Determine your location by finding the nearest street address on Portage or the nearest cross street. Note the stop number.
- Call TeleBUS at 287-RIDE (7433) and follow the prompts using your stop number.
Ride by Route Number
Winnipeg Transit identifies routes with a route number, route name, and route destination. The route name is usually the major street the bus travels on and the route destination generally identifies the final destination point or area the bus travels.
Bus Stop Sign
Bus stop sign information includes the nearest cross street or landmark, bus stop number, TeleBUS phone number, and route numbers for the stop location. Yellow bus route tiles indicate express bus service.
