Nov. 4, 2015

BC Transit and the Victoria Regional Transit Commission are pleased to offer free transit for Canadian Forces personnel, both past and present, on Remembrance Day, November 11.

The complimentary rides are provided to any member, past or present, who is in uniform or presents their Canadian Forces identification and applies to both traditional and handyDART services.

BC Transit thanks members of the Canadian Forces for their service and encourages the community to show its support and use transit to attend Remembrance Day ceremonies at various locations in the Capital Region.

BC Transit is also encouraging operators, when it is safe to do so, to stop their bus at 11:00 a.m. to observe the traditional minute of silence in memory of Canada’s war veterans and active military members.

BC Transit will be running a Sunday schedule on November 11. For more information on routes and schedules please consult http://bctransit.com/victoria/home or call 250.382.6161.
