Transit System: Creston Valley
CRESTON – BC Transit and the Regional District of Central Kootenay
are pleased to invite residents of the Creston Valley to comment on options
for transit service at an Open House next Tuesday February 14, 2012.
“This is a great opportunity to work with BC Transit to remodel the Creston
Valley Transit system,” said John Kettle, Board Chair of the Regional District.
“We need to provide a transit system for our residents that is both functional
and sustainable for the future”.
“It is important that the local community has had the opportunity to provide
comments,” said Manuel Achadinha, President and CEO of BC Transit. “Successful
transit requires the input of the community.”
“I encourage residents and businesses to attend the open house to offer
ideas on ways to improve transit service,” said East Kootenay MLA Bill

use it. I look forward to hearing about results of this open house.”
