Winnipeg (YWG): routes D12 and D13 from the terminal to The Forks
Winnipeg Transit stops at the airport terminal on Wellington. D13 Sargent and D12 Ellice both run to The Forks, roughly 05:05 to 01:00.
- The airport terminal has its own stop, listed by Winnipeg Transit as Westbound Wellington at Airport Terminal.
- Route D13 Sargent runs 05:14 to 00:59, with The Airport and The Forks as its headsigns.
- Route D12 Ellice runs 05:04 to 00:56, the same pair of headsigns.
- The Forks is the destination that matters: the riverside market and transit hub next to downtown and Union Station.
- Both routes have around 600 scheduled calls each in the published timetable, so this is a frequent everyday service, not a token one.
- Route 224 Sherwin-Valour passes nearby, first 05:29, serving Polo Park and RRC Polytech.
- Route 883 Murray Park uses the Saskatchewan Avenue stops, 05:35 to 18:20, for Grace Hospital.
- The airport is about 7 km from downtown, which is unusually close for a Canadian city.
The two routes to know
- D13 Sargent and D12 Ellice are the airport services. Both show The Airport and The Forks on their headsigns, so you can read the destination off the front of the bus.
- D13 runs from 05:14 to 00:59; D12 from 05:04 to 00:56. Between them the terminal is covered from before dawn until an hour after midnight.
- Each has roughly 600 scheduled calls in Winnipeg Transit's published timetable data. These are core city routes, not an airport shuttle.
- The lettered prefix marks them as part of the redesigned network, where D routes are direct cross-town services.
Where the stop is
- Westbound Wellington at Airport Terminal is the airport stop in the operator's data, listed about 1.2 km from the runway reference point but at the terminal building itself.
- Saskatchewan Avenue stops sit a kilometre away: Saskatchewan Loop, Saskatchewan at Wihuri. These are for the industrial area, not for arrivals.
What else is close
- Route 224, Sherwin-Valour, first 05:29, last 00:19, serves Polo Park, RRC Polytech and Tecumseh Loop.
- Route 883, Murray Park, 05:35 to 18:20, runs to Grace Hospital via Saskatchewan Loop.
Practical notes
- Downtown is about 7 km away. Winnipeg's airport is one of the closest to a Canadian city centre.
- The Forks is the best target if you do not know the city: it is walkable to downtown hotels and is where other routes converge.
- There is no rail link and none is planned, so the bus is the public option.
