BC Ferries had more than 4000 respondents for their online survey and the message from the public is that they want more sailings and a reliable service for the Sunshine Coast.
Deborah Marshall with BC Ferries says they are working on a new schedule that they hope will fit the needs of their customers on the Sunshine Coast.
“We definitely heard that people want to maintain commuting time particularly the 6:20 AM sailing from Langdale and ideally people are looking for a 5:30 PM sailing if possible from Horseshoe Bay.”
Another popular demand was for more frequent sailings.
Marshall says they will have to look ahead for future capital dollars to consider such a move, and that could take as long as five years.
