BC Ferries cuts back

BC Ferries is cutting more weekend sailings on the Tsawwassen-Duke Point route.

The cuts take effect when the fall schedule resumes in October.

The first sailing on Saturdays will be 7:45am from either side, with the last boat leaving at 3:15pm.

BC Ferries’ Deborah Marshall claims it’s in response to customer feedback.
 
“We certainly hear from customers – they’re concerned about ferry fares, and by reducing the under-utilised sailings on the major routes, we can save some money and keep fares at a reasonable level.”

Marshall says the cuts will save about four million dollars.
