2016 was a year of historic investments in transit for Metro Vancouver. It began with a commitment by the Government of British Columbia for approximately a quarter of a billion dollars ($246 million) over three years for significant transit improvements and expansions in Metro Vancouver.

Safe, modern and efficient public infrastructure ensures the well-being of British Columbia communities.

Modern technology, improved infrastructure and newer and cleaner buses are topping the list of BC Transit projects for Kamloops soon to roll out under phase one of the new Public Transit Infrastructure Fund.

The Province is providing more funding to BC Transit to significantly increase handyDART service hours in Victoria, benefiting persons with disabilities and seniors.

An efficient and affordable transit system is a key factor in economic activity, reducing the effects of climate change, and healthier lifestyles, said Todd Stone, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure while addressing a BC Transit workshop titled, ‘Exploring possibilities, embracing change.’
