To the editor:
I would like to share my concerns about citizens not serviced by BC Transit.
The company provides 54 million rides in 130 communities using over 1,000 buses. These are provided by a combination of fares and tax money.
Urban residents are the sole beneficiary of this tax money. A portion of this contributed by rural residents.
With all the experience that BC Transit has in bus service, it seems to me it would be a simple operation for BC Transit to provide bus transportation between communities around the province.
