PRINCE GEORGE – BC Transit is making some changes to its routes in Prince George with back-to-school, effective September 6th.

“Prior to COVID-19, post-secondary students made up 50% of our ridership in Prince George,” says Jamie Weiss, Public Affairs Advisor for BC Transit. “So it’s important our service meets the increased demand of students going back to school.” ·

The changes include:

*Reintroduction of K-12 school trips on the 12 Parkridge, 96 Shas-ti/Kelly via N. Nechako and 97 Shas-ti/Kelly via Highway 97 ·
