Kimberley’s Route 23 seasonal ski bus service is moving to new areas.

To support ridership and the continued growth of the City of Kimberley, BC Transit and the province are partnering with the city to expand priority service in the community.

“Our communities are growing and need public-transit systems that are reliable and affordable,” said Rob Fleming, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure. “We have seen that when people have access to an extensive transit system, they use it. This investment ensures that our transit system can continue to deliver unparalleled services to the people who need it.”

This investment in the local-transit system ensures that public-transit services can continue to offer dependable transportation options for people in Kimberley. People will see the enhanced service beginning January 2025, stated a Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure media release.

“The expanded service in Kimberley is part of improved transit service in communities across B.C. To support communities and ensure that people have continued access to the public transit they rely on, the province is committing approximately $29 million for new BC Transit system expansion,” the release said.
