9924 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 $4 to and from Summerland/Penticton .... and people still bitch about the $2.50 fare between Vernon and Kelowna LOL! Anyway, good for Summerland, now if only they'd get a bus going between Summerland and Peachland and one can finally travel through the whole valley. Better yet, get a couple of buses from Penticton, Kelowna and Vernon and start a valley wide connector that runs from Vernon to Penticton without having to tranfer and you really got something. Keep it nice and simple with stops at Vernon Downtown, College, Oyama, Winfield, YLW, UBC0, Queensway, Westbank, Peachland, Summerland and downtown Penticton ... $3 between Kelowna and Vernon or Penticton and $6 between Vernon and Penticton.

But who would operate the route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9924 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 That is a good idea. But who would operate the route?No reason why Penticton, Kelowna and Vernon couldn't all put buses on the route ... the only stumbling blocks would be the local municipality squabbling of who funds how much and the Unions squabbling that one Union is "stealing" jobs from the other. Transit could be so easy in a perfect world LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Bus Fan Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 According to this article this "bus service is rolling out nicely:" http://www.pentictonwesternnews.com/news/280710392.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzldriver Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 9924 is right. No reason all 3 couldn't run it. They could lump all 3 systems together and create one big happy family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
