Work is set to continue on a transit improvement project in the Comox Valley.
BC Transit said work will resume on the downtown Comox transit exchange the week of Feb. 23, after possible archaeological material was discovered in November 2025 and further assessment was required.
“BC Transit continues working closely with the Ministry of Forests’ Archaeology Branch to ensure all required permits are in place and protocols are followed,” BC Transit said in a press release.
Traffic changes will be in place on Port Augusta Street between Comox Avenue and Balmoral Avenue during the project, with the southbound lane and adjacent sidewalk temporarily closed.
Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians in the area are asked to watch for signage.
During construction, transit users are asked to use alternative bus stops at Beaufort Avenue at Wilcox Street for Route 3 and Comox Avenue for Routes 1 and 4.
Transit users are also advised to monitor signage and customer alerts for any changes or delays to routes.
