City of PG launches summer Transit Challenge

Local residents are being asked to ditch their cars and explore Prince George via public transit this summer as part of an initiative.

The City is encouraging people to take part in the Transit Challenge.

It provides a snapshot for those who don’t normally take public transit to try visiting a City facility, community event, or park by bus and documenting the journey by completing one, or all, of the challenges:

  • Find your comfy spot: Tell us where you like to sit and why.
  • Window view reflection: What do you see out the window that catches your eye?
  • Spot some art: Tell us about a mural or colorful design you spotted on the bus, at a stop, or along the way.

Participants can complete the challenge either by writing or by creating art!

To participate, fill out a form at various locations including the Prince George Council of Seniors, YMCA, Canfor Leisure Pool, Aquatic Centre, City Hall, or by downloading it from the City website.

Completed forms can be dropped off at any of the above locations or sent by email by August 1st at [email protected]
