There are loads of festivities and, hopefully, relaxing planned for this weekend. In order to make your three days off as smooth as possible, it’s a good idea to take note of changes and additions to transit service over the next few days. Here goes…

Celebration of Light

Rush-hour level of SkyTrain service

More SeaBus sailings

Extra buses to and from Downtown before and after the event

The #5, #6, #22, C21, and C23 will be rerouted between 7:30 p.m. and 11 p.m.

B.C. Day

All transit services will run on a Sunday/holiday schedule for B.C. Day (Aug 1), meaning single-zone FareCards work in all zones.  And if you have an adult FareCard, West Coast Express 28-Day Pass or Employee Transit Pass, you can take five children or one adult and four children on transit with you for free!

Have a great and safe long weekend everyone!
