Banff & Canmore Transit- Grande West Vicinity

In 2016, buses #11 (Cougar) and #12 (Lynx) were added to the fleet. They are Chinese built Vicinity buses marketed & sold through Grande West, a Canadian company. These buses in 2016 saw a mixed use of service on various routes, but have since been assigned to Canmore local Route 5. In late 2018, a third Grande West Vicinity was added to the fleet, #21 also assigned to work Route 5 for local Canmore service.
