Bus riders in the Terrace and Thornhill areas will notice some changes to BC Transit’s route numbers, beginning today.
While the routes themselves will remain largely unchanged, the numbers have been changed to provide clarity.
Route names will remain the same, but numbers will increase by 40, meaning route 1 is now route 41, and route 2 is route 42.
The changes are being made in order to accommodate the corporation’s new NextRide automatic location technology.
Prior to the changes, route numbers had been duplicated across multiple communities, leading to confusion for the new system, currently being installed across the province.
In addition, a new route, the 44 Northside trip, is being added to provide afterschool service previously provided by route 2, now 42.
