Victoria – BC Transit is seeking public input through two open houses on the Saanich Peninsula on Wednesday, February 28 and Thursday, March 1.
Changes under consideration include improvements to routes 81 Brentwood/Sidney/Swartz Bay, 83 Sidney/Brentwood/Royal Oak and 88 Airport/Sidney, and the creation of a new route that will enhance service to the Dean Park neighbourhood, connecting it to existing regional routes and key destinations.
Other improvements to be discussed include the introduction of weekend service for route 85 North Saanich, and general enhancements to service to West Sidney, Sidney’s Industrial Area, the Saanich Peninsula Hospital and various Peninsula shopping destinations.
Feedback gathered through these public consultations will help BC Transit to develop its service plan for fall 2018.
