FAQs

Why do some escalators take longer to repair than others?

Escalators that are not in service may require parts that have become difficult to source resulting in longer than expected outages. Some escalators also require a provincial inspection before they can go back into service.

I see an escalator that isn’t working, why isn’t it on the list?

There are certain instances, such as with minor repairs, where escalator issues can be quickly resolved and back into service within the day; these typically won’t appear on the outages list. Only escalators that are expected to require more than a week of maintenance are placed on the list.

I see that an escalator is out of service, but it’s not being worked on. How long will it take before Calgary Transit is aware that it requires maintenance?

You can be sure that maintenance is coming to fix the issue since our PS100 cameras will detect an outage as it happens.

What are other reasons that the escalator isn’t working?

Escalators are expected to need maintenance due to regular use, wear and tear, however Calgary Transit also conducts preventative inspections to help maintenance workers discover problems proactively and keep our escalators operating safely. We appreciate your patience.
