Accessibility

At BC Transit, we want everyone to be able to use public transit, no matter their accessibility needs. We’re always looking for your feedback on our Accessibility Plan and invite you to share your ideas to help make transit easier for everyone.

You can share feedback by:

Email: bctransitaccessibility@bctransit.com
