BC Ferries to boost Metro Vancouver summer sailings as cuts hit northern B.C. – BiV
BC Ferries plans to increase its sailings out of both Horseshoe Bay and Tsawwassen this summer as cuts to other, smaller routes continue to hit tourism operators in northern B.C.
The ferry corporation’s summer schedule kicks in on June 25 when daily sailings on the Tsawwassen-Swartz Bay route double to 32 from 16 currently, BC Ferries spokeswoman Deborah Marshall told Business in Vancouver June 18.
The Horseshoe Bay route will also get more sailings: 22 per day starting June 25, up from 16 currently. The Tsawwassen-Duke Point run is the other run that will get more sailings. Currently, it has reduced service on weekends. That will end on June 25, when it will have 16 sailings each day.
