The Ultimate Transit Relay (UTR) is a Transit Relay whose route attempts to cross every single sovereign state in the world (including stops in each capital as well as several highlights of each region) using public transit—buses, trains, trams, metros, ferries, and the occasional airplane.

The Transit Relay's route begins at Toronto Pearson International Airport on a Sunday morning at 7:00 AM. The inaugural leg sees SMW board a flight to Newfoundland and Labrador's provincial capital of St. John's. From there, the team will hand off the baton to the first of many teams that will take it across all ten of Canada's provinces. It will eventually arrive at British Columbia's provincial capital of Victoria, located on Vancouver Island. From there, the baton will be flown to Iqaluit, the territorial capital of Nunavut, before stopping at the Northwest Territories and Yukon.
Alaska and the contiguous United States
After arriving at Yukon's territorial capital of Whitehorse, the American portion of the UTR will begin in the adjacent exclave of Alaska. From there, the baton will fly to Washington before zigzagging across the country into the southern tip of Florida.
