Route Renumbering in Shuswap Regional Transit System
Transit System: Shuswap
17 March 2022
BC Transit is informing customers that transit routes are being renumbered in the Shuswap Regional Transit System effective April 1, 2022.
Routes are being renumbered in order to avoid confusion between regional transit systems, as there are duplicate route numbers in other systems near the Shuswap Regional Transit System. 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.
While route names will not change, not having duplicate route numbers will allow for the possibility of future connections with nearby transit systems. Transit users should look for temporary signage at bus stops until permanent signage is installed.
