The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen, along with the City of Penticton, Town of Osoyoos, Town of Princeton, Town of Oliver, Town of Keremeos, District of Summerland and BC Transit are inviting the public to get on board with the region’s 25-year Transit Future Plan.
From September 10 to 15, BC Transit is bringing the ‘Transit Future Bus’ to various locations throughout the South Okanagan-Similkameen region to connect with community members about area-specific transit needs, priorities and concerns.
The 40-foot decommissioned bus has been transformed into an interactive public consultation tool. The Transit Future Bus features educational displays that include a draft of the South Okanagan’s 25-year transit plan, Post-It note boards for rider-led initiatives, an iPad station and a Kids’ Zone. The Transit Future Team will be travelling with the bus to answer questions and help visitors learn more about public transportation in the region. For the schedule see Page 21 of the September 11 edition of the Oliver Chronicle.
