handyDART services expanding to statutory holidays in the Comox Valley

More accessible transit options will be available every statutory holiday in the Comox Valley starting this long weekend. 

B.C. Transit and the B.C. Government say handyDART services will be expanded in the valley to include statutory holidays starting Labour Day Monday. 

Parliamentary Secretary for Transit George Anderson says the expansion ensures everyone can get to where they need to go, when they need to go. 

“Expanding handyDART service to include statutory holidays is an important step in making transit more accessible and reliable for people who depend on the service in the Comox Valley,” says Anderson. 

The expanded service applies to Courtenay, Comox, and Cumberland and ensures those who cannot use public transit without assistance can safely travel through the area. 

B.C. Transit and the B.C. Government are also partnering with the Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) to include additional annual service hours.
