The Halifax Transit EPass is an annual renewable plastic bus pass with the staff member's picture and name on the front. The Epass can be used for buses, ferries, Express & Regional Express routes & the Access-A-Bus. ​
​
Through the OPT Program, Halifax Transit EPasses are available to QEII staff at a highly discounted rate of $49 per month, paid through payroll deductions or Pre-authorized Debit (PAD) payments.​
Epass users receive five free taxi vouchers from Halifax Transit's Guaranteed Ride Home Program to get home from work throughout the year in case of a personal/family emergency or illness, overtime, or if their carpool partner is unavailable.
​
Registration for the May 1 Epass is open Thursday, March 13 until Sunday, April 13.
