Passengers of B.C. Transit will get to have their say on development plans to service the Jubilee and Burnside/Tillicum areas.
B.C. Transit will start a series of open houses Thursday aimed to seek input to develop Local Area Transit Plans specific to those two zones.
Feedback will be used to help the corporation develop recommendations to the Victoria Regional Transit Commission on how to improve existing services and identify future needs specific to those neighbourhoods.
