Cab fares within town cost $12 for any destination. If the driver stops at a coffee shop for 3-5 minutes, there is a $3 surcharge, bringing the total to $15 for a one-way trip with a stop. After grocery shopping, the return trip home costs another $12, or $14 with a tip. From June through October, I used my bicycle for errands around town. Now I take taxis due to snowfall and cold weather. However, many people still use bikes safely despite the conditions.
Thanks brother for the info. Really need to consider this before moving to Olds. I have applied to Olds College and maybe I need a bicycle too, there's no way I'm paying $15 a trip. I don't have an offer yet though.
Thanks for this video. I want to come to Old College next year and it's good to see that although rural, the community has decent development. Can you tell us about the transit system there? I read there isn't a one so having a car might be needed. Are there car dealers?
There is only a taxi/cab system. They usually charge 11 CAD $ for any trip inside the town. But a bicycle is a good option in summer and moderate cold environments. Because all the facilities are in a range of 3 km and roads are suitable for cycling. They are a lot of car dealers, and you can get a car quickly if you have money. But nowadays, having a vehicle is not an easy task. You should get your home near to college if you have to go college many times a week or if you have a few day classes in a week then try to get home near downtown or a place near to part-time jobs facilities to save travelling cost.

When I went from Calgary to Olds town, one of my research team member picked me up. Inside Olds town, I used to take Didsbury Taxi whose number is +1-403-507-5189 or +1-403-556-6050. The same taxi dropped me back from Olds to Calgary airport. They charge around 120 CAD $.
