The Victoria Regional Transit System is governed by the Victoria Regional Transit Commission (the Commission). It consists of a minimum of seven members (five locally elected mayors and two councillors) who are appointed according to the British Columbia Transit Act.
The Commission sets routes, service levels, fares and local taxes for transit purposes. It reviews and is responsible for raising the local share of the annual cost of transit in the region. Funding regulations for the Victoria Regional Transit System are described in the British Columbia Transit Regulation and the Motor Fuel Tax Act, and shown in the graphs below.
