Bus Trips

Seymour Access Bus

The Seymour Access Bus is for older adults who have difficulty navigating transportation and who need extra support to get out of the house. Shop for groceries, prescriptions, and other essentials or just enjoy an afternoon out with companions.

Monthly Leisure Bus Trips

Explore the interesting sights of Lower Mainland in the comfort of our Society’s private bus! Our monthly Leisure Bus Trips will take you to a variety of destinations. We also have our twice-monthly Seymour Access Bus trips for those who have a harder time getting out and about. All trips depart from and return to Parkgate Community Centre.

Bus trips are registered programs. Registration opens for upcoming bus trips one month prior to the trip date and are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Sign up for a bus trip at Parkgate Community Centre front desk, by calling the North Vancouver Call Center: (604) 987-7529 or online via this link.
