“We want to provide people an opportunity to travel safely on New Year’s Eve,” said BC Transit Spokesperson Jamie Weiss.
“We know this is a day of celebration for a lot of people and the best thing they can do is leave their vehicles at home, and having a safe, reliable transportation option is a good way to promote safe celebration.”
In Kitimat, BC Transit will be extending evening service until 2:00 a.m. on New Year’s Eve on certain routes, with free service starting at 7:00 p.m.
