Prince George Transit Future Action Plan
In 2014, the Prince George Transit Future Plan was completed. The Transit Future Plan provided a vision for how the transit system can change and what it will ultimately look like in 25 years. Since then, many of the transit service and infrastructure priorities identified in the plan have been completed. This has included projects such as:
- Introduction of holiday service.
- Improvement of weekend service frequency and increasing the span of the service day.
- Beginning to develop the Future Rapid Transit Network and the Future Frequent Transit Network.
