Coastal Ferries 2020

Engagement Summary

Our ferries are integral to our coastal communities and essential to moving goods across the province and strengthening our economy.

It is vital that this service works well for the many British Columbians who rely on ferry travel, whether it is part of a daily commute, or getting away for the weekend.

We collected input on what the future of coastal transportation should look like to support development of a vision for coastal ferry services.

The public was invited to provide their thoughts and ideas for the future of the coastal ferry system. What should the coastal ferry service look like in 20, 30 or 40 years and how should services be delivered to better support a desirable future.
