Tip # 4: Be aware of your surroundings – stay in well-lit areas. If someone is acting in a way that makes you uncomfortable, quietly move away – go to another part of the platform, sit closer to the bus driver, switch SkyTrain cars, etc. ^SM

Back to School Tip # 1 • Know how to call for help – save contact numbers in your mobile phone: 604.515.8300 for calls, and 87.77.77 for texts. Learn about security features on the transit system. Look for transit staff during your journey. Transit Police, SkyTrain Attendants and Canada Line Attendants are often found near ticket machines or on platforms. ^CC
