Transit System: Salt Spring Island
BC Transit and the Capital Regional District are announcing the introduction of year-round service to Beddis and Cusheon Lake roads effective October 1, 2021.
Starting on Friday, October 1, the 7 Cusheon Lake will run three trips per day. This route provides increased transit coverage on Salt Spring Island and serves a number of destinations and visitor accommodations. It also provides additional service along Fulford Ganges Road, so that residents have more options for service in that area.
Service on all other routes is being adjusted to match demand and align with BC Ferries’ schedules. Earlier Sunday and Holiday service is also being introduced on the following routes:
- 1 Ganges Local
- 3 Vesuvius
- 4 Long Harbour
- 5 Fernwood
- 6 SS Connector
Early service on Saturday is also being added to routes 3, 4 and 5. BC Transit reminds customers that that Free Transit for Children 12 and Under launched on September 1, and more information on that program is available here.
In alignment with the Provincial Health Officer, face coverings are mandatory for customers on all BC Transit buses. For more information on the service change, fares and schedules, please visit bctransit.com/salt-spring-island.
