Free rides on 15th anniversary of Cranbrook transit
The City of Cranbrook and BC Transit are pleased to announce all transit trips are free on December 3, in celebration of the 15th anniversary of conventional transit services in the region.
The free rides apply to both fixed route and handyDART services.
Fixed routing was introduced in Cranbrook 15 years ago. Since then, passenger trips have more than doubled. In 2001/02, BC Transit supplied nearly 100,000 passenger trips. In 2013/14, those passenger trips climbed to more than 217,000.
Some of the major milestones for transit services in Cranbrook include the introduction of the UPass at the College of the Rockies in 2006, the unveiling of the new downtown exchange in 2008 and the expansion of weekend service with longer hours on Friday and Saturday evenings in 2014.
