Earth Day free transit in West Kootenay

This coming Monday, BC Transit and its local government partners are happy to announce free transit in the West Kootenays in recognition of Earth Day on April 22, 2024.

Earth Day highlights the importance of sustainability and encourages people to make choices that reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs) and help protect our environment.

Taking public transit is one way to make a difference.

BC Transit is committed to making a positive impact on our environment with it’s Low Carbon Fleet Program underway to support provincial targets for GHG emissions and aligns with CleanBC.

The current province-wide fleet has more than 280 Compressed Natural Gas buses and
funding is now in place for the future addition of 141 electric buses.

More information on BC Transit’s future zero-emission fleet and sustainability initiatives is available here.

BC Transit would like to thank the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, Regional District of Central Kootenay, and City of Nelson for their support of free transit on Earth Day.

We encourage our customers to use the Transit App, Google Transit or any other app of their choice for real-time bus tracking and planning your next transit journey.
