History

In the 1950s local bus service was provided by ''Blair's Bus Lines'', which was superseded by ''Medicine Hat Transportation Company'', until 1972, when city-owned ''Medicine Hat Transit'' commenced operation of the current system. Starting in October 2008 Medicine Hat Transit began a transformation, with new routes and schedules and a fleet makeover and rebranding.Medicine Hat News: New look coming for Hat transit
