BC Transit has announced its latest measure to limit the spread of COVID-19, as the number of passengers on buses will be limited.
The passenger reduction comes following recommendations of physical distancing, as fewer passengers will provide additional space onboard.
Province-wide, BC Transit has seen a ridership reduction of 50-70%, depending on transit system, and does not anticipate an increase in pass-ups.
The organization has promised that if any pass-ups occur, required adjustments will be made.
This news comes after yesterday’s announcement that BC Transit and the City of Prince George would be reducing service within the city.
