Summer service change and detour in Kelowna 

BC Transit and its regional partners* are informing customers of a seasonal service change for the Kelowna Regional Transit System, effective June 29, 2025.  

As part of this service change, the trips on the following routes will be reduced for the summer:  

Route 4 Pandosy Express 

Route 8 University/College 

Route 23 Lake Country 

Route 97 Okanagan 

Due to construction that is scheduled to begin later this summer, there will be a detour that will impact Route 16 Kettle Valley, with temporary bus stops in place. The detour will begin on June 29, 2025 as part of the summer service change. This detour will also result in a decrease in frequency for both Route 16 Kettle Valley and Route 17 South Ridge. This is expected to remain in place until Fall 2025. For full detour details, click here.
