SmartTrip Program

The SmartTrip Program provides employers in Halifax Regional Municipality with sustainable commuting programs and benefits for their employees. This program aims to reduce single-occupancy vehicle trips during peak hours by encouraging employees to engage in alternative, sustainable transportation decisions. 

When you register your organization with SmartTrip, you gain access to the following benefits for your employees.

EPass is an annual discounted transit pass, purchased by the employee through payroll deduction. Employees save 25% off the price of a regular monthly pass. For more information on the EPass program, please click here.

The GRH program provides employees who commute to work sustainably at least 3+ times a week with guaranteed transportation home via taxi in the event of personal illness or emergency while at work.

Free workshops on cycling. Learn more about how to get around by bike in the municipality and how to incorporate Halifax Transit into your cycling commute.

Transit and carshare, the perfect partnership. Use your EPass to get access to Communauto's Dynamic Duo Value Plan. Access a car when you need to without the hassle of ownership. 

Employers must be a SmartTrip member to access the benefits outlined above. SmartTrip members are charged an annual fee based on the size of their workplace (see fee table below).
