Anyone taking the bus to enjoy the Canada Day festivities at Lheidli T’enneh Memorial and Canada Games Plaza can do so for just a buck.
BC Transit Communications Manager Jonathan Dyck says another form of payment will also be accepted.
“You can choose to donate a non-perishable food item instead of paying that $1 fare and that non-perishable food item will go to the Salvation Army in exchange for riding the bus.”
The buses will run on a Sunday schedule.
“Extended service will be available on route 46 Queensway until 4:30 pm, Route 15 UNBC and on 15th Avenue, 88 Westgate, and 89 Hart will be offering extended late night service ending at midnight as well,” says Dyck.
