That was the only reason they were changed. Bc transit was here in Kelowna looking at them as we were the first to get them and they had it sitting in front of the shop. I hopped on a lost property bike and rode up right in front of them and plunked it on the rack. The round headlights were almost completely blocked. Thus, bikes weren’t permitted after dark on them. They were retrofitted shortly after. I think out east they either don’t have racks or simply never allowed bikes after dark. And yes. Sidneytransitfan is right about community buses. People get angry with drivers all the t

Let's face it, the whole thing needs a complete rework. I think honestly what should happen is that BC Transit replace what Greyhound abandoned by implementing an intercity transit system using coaches. LInk all of the systems together and have the intercity buses transfer at main terminuses and trasfer people to local service. The tricky part would be in the eastern part of the province to make sure there are connections to Alberta centers and services for them. That is where Greyhound shined and becuase of poor management, failed. but with the price of gas going so far down right now, I- 9 replies

This year has been nuts in Kelowna. You are right about that 9924. I can't believe some of the stuff that we have faced. But really, two of the stories above were not the driver's fault. The other one was the driver trying to protect himself and the public. Just seems that Kelowna is a hot bed for media attention about bus stuff. This stuff happens everywhere else, but it's so commonplace that nobody takes notice of it. Including the media.

It was done that way to ensure that people weren't just using it to go shopping. I know in the East Kootenay, they had people showing up in Golden expecting to go shopping in Cranbrook for the day, and were turned away because by the time the bus got to other points down the Columbia Valley, the bus would be full with booked passengers. People would get angry and argue with the driver. But it was communicated to people that there was a transit connection to Cranbrook, but not communicated by the right people.- 9 replies
