The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) in partnership with Denman Works launched the Denman Island bus service on July 1st. The Denman Island Bus Service is a pilot project that will run three days a week (Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with the occasional stat Monday) until Labour Day.
There will be five designated bus stops that will be marked with a tall sandwich board sign:
- Denman West terminal
- Downtown (Denman Activity Centre & Museum)
- Guesthouse
- Farmer’s Market
- Gravelly Bay Ferry Terminal
The bus is in operation Friday - Sunday plus Thursday, July 1st, Monday, August 2nd, and Monday, September 6th.
There will also be pickup and drop off on request along the route at driver discretion depending on time. The Denman Island Bus Service will not only enable travel to key destinations on the island, but it will facilitate connections to BC Ferries where bus riders can travel to the Comox Valley or Hornby Island where other buses will make regional travel without a private automobile possible. The summer service will travel according to the following schedule:
