People in Prince George have more weekend transit options with the introduction of additional service hours on several routes in the region.

“As of Jan. 5, people in Prince George have more convenient and reliable weekend transit options,” said George Anderson, parliamentary secretary for transit. “By expanding service hours on key routes, we’re making it easier for people to travel across the city, connect with their communities and access the services they rely on.”

Strengthening connections

To support increasing ridership and convenient transit service for people throughout the province, BC Transit and the B.C. government are partnering with the City of Prince George to expand service on key routes.

This builds on the work done in communities throughout B.C. to provide improved transit services and connect communities. The service expansion began on Monday, Jan. 5, 2026, with the introduction of additional service hours on several routes.

Additional service hours

• Expanded service on routes 5 and 15.
• Additional service hours were also added on routes 88 and 89, which travel from College Heights to the Hart Centre Mall.

These investments in the local transit system ensure that services offered are dependable for people in Prince George, especially on weekends. The Ministry of Transportation and Transit’s ongoing support for BC Transit ensures people outside Metro Vancouver continue to have access to the transit services they need.

Since 2017, the ministry has increased the provincial operating grant to BC Transit by approximately 70%, supporting transit service levels throughout the province and continuing to implement transit expansion that benefits people in British Columbia.
