Calgary, Alberta, is served by Calgary Transit (167 routes) and is home to roughly 2,100 transit shelters across the city. The local design code requires every shelter to handle a 1.4 kPa snow load and a 0.51 kPa wind load, and to comply with Alberta Building Code accessibility provisions. With an average winter temperature of -7.1°C and 129 cm of annual snowfall, Calgary shelters need cold-rated gaskets, roof drainage sized for snow load, and footings to 2.4 m frost depth. BusShelters.ca delivers and installs every shelter type in Calgary with stamped engineering for Zone 7A (AB).
The Calgary fleet operates roughly 2100 shelters across 167 Calgary Transit routes, with stamped engineering at Ss 1.4 kPa snow load and q1/50 0.51 kPa wind load.

Replacement parts ship from Brantford with a 48-hour SLA to Calgary maintenance teams, and our regional install crews are bonded and insured for Alberta prevailing-wage public-sector work.
