Your complete guide to getting around Moncton - from airport transfers to local transport

Getting Around Moncton

Moncton's transport scene is built around the Codiac Transpo bus network, the blue-and-white buses you'll see on Main, Mountain, and Vaughan Harvey. A day pass is cheap and covers every route. Buy it on the bus with coins or pick up a reloadable e-card at City Hall. Taxis are plentiful but a splurge compared to the bus. Most trips downtown cost several times the day-pass price. If you're staying near the waterfront or Magnetic Hill, note that buses thin out after 10 p.m. and on Sundays. First-time visitors should download the Codiac Transpo app to see live bus locations and avoid the paper-map shuffle. The central hub is outside the Moncton Market on Main, every route passes here, so it's the easiest place to transfer. Skip the hotel shuttle offers from out-of-town operators. They often loop through multiple properties and can double your travel time. From Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International, the #23 bus runs to downtown in about 25 minutes and costs a fraction of a taxi. After midnight, the bus stops, so the taxi queue outside Arrivals becomes the only game in town, agree on the metered fare before you load your bags.
