The Sunshine Coast Transit System is operated under a funding agreement with BC Transit and extends from Langdale to Halfmoon Bay. The main conventional route operates from Sechelt via Roberts Creek and Gibsons to the Langdale Ferry terminal using accessible buses with wheelchair ramps. This service is augmented by local routes that operate to Halfmoon Bay, the Sechelt Arena and West Sechelt. The regional district’s share of the costs of the system is funded through transit fares and property taxes.
The transit service is operated using six full-size and one minibus that collectively carry about 500,000 passengers per year. Our productivity, measured in rides per hour, is one of the highest among the BC Transit systems and was recognized by the Canadian Urban Transit Association as the sixth highest in Canada among small systems.
BC Transit and the SCRD have recently installed electronic fareboxes on the full size buses with plans to install a smaller version on the community bus that services the local routes in Sechelt and Halfmoon Bay. These new fare boxes will validate fares and provide needed data on fare payment.
A five year Transit Business Plan was completed in 2006 that will be updated in 2012. The plan will be the guide for the development of the transit system in the near future.
