Port Hope Transit is the local bus service provider in the town of Port Hope, Ontario, which is located on the north shore of Lake Ontario about km to mi|109|spell=Commonwealth|abbr=no east of Toronto. With a population of only 16,390 people in 2006, this is one of the few smaller communities in the province with a fully-funded public transit system.

Two regular routes serve the community with an additional inter-municipal shuttle service to Northumberland Mall and Northumberland Hills Hospital in Cobourg, which connects with the Cobourg Transit system.

The cash fare is $2.00 for adults and $1.50 for seniors or children younger than 18, with preschoolers riding for free. A 30-day pass costs $50 for adults and $30 for students and seniors.
