Smithers Transit Future Service Plan

What is the Plan About?

BC Transit and the District of Smithers are seeking public feedback on the 2025 Smithers Transit Future Service Plan (TFSP). The TFSP will outline short, medium, and long-term transit priorities for the Smithers Transit System over the next 5-10 years. In addition to the local transit service within Smithers, the plan will also consider connections to the Village of Telkwa and Witset. This will be the first strategic planning document developed for the Smithers Regional Transit System, establishing the foundation for future decision-making and investment.

How Did We Get Here?

Currently, the Smithers Regional Transit System does not have a strategic, long-term vision to guide its growth and development. Creating the TFSP will establish a framework to support decision-making related to service changes, infrastructure investments, and system expansion.

Feedback gathered through this process will be used to identify potential improvements to the transit system and determine how to prioritize them. Input from the community is critical to ensuring the future transit system reflects the needs, priorities, and aspirations of the community.

Have Your Say

We want to hear from you! A short survey will be available from July 17 to August 17, 2025. Your feedback will help shape the future of transit in Smithers and ensure that improvements align with the community's needs. Thank you for participating!
