BC Transit is informing customers that some changes are coming to transit routes in the Terrace Regional Transit System effective June 27, 2022.
These changes will help provide clarity for customers planning trips between neighbouring regional transit systems, as there are currently duplicate route numbers. While this has not been an issue to this point, with the introduction of the new NextRide automatic vehicle location technology being installed on buses throughout the province, the renumbering of some routes is necessary to help minimize confusion for customers making connections with nearby transit systems.
The local Terrace and Thornhill routes are being renumbered. There will be a new route, 44 Northside, which will provide afterschool service, a service previously provided by route 2. The existing route 2 – now the 42 City Shuttle – will provide regular service to the Tuck Seniors Residence throughout the day.
Route names will not be changed, only route numbers. Customers should look for temporary signage at bus stops until permanent signage is installed.
The new route numbers are:
Current:
Changing to:
1 College/Halliwell
41 College/Halliwell
2 City Shuttle
42 City Shuttle
3 Southside
43 Southside
5 Thornhill
45 Thornhill
6 College Express
46 College Express
New Route:
44 Northside
Please pick up a new Rider’s Guide for all route renumbering details or check for alerts regularly and sign up to receive route-specific email notifications at: https://www.bctransit.com/terrace/schedules-and-maps.
BC Transit appreciates the understanding of customers during this time and apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.
