Full Day Berth Closure - March 9

Full-Day Berth Closure March 9, 2024

Bowen Island travellers can expect water taxi-only service on Saturday, March 9, 2024 to allow for required work at the Snug Cove terminal (Bowen Island). This work is part of the Snug Cove Marine Structures project taking place now until early April.

We have carefully chosen days for this work based on consultation with the community and historical data indicating reduced traffic volumes. Our goal is to mitigate the impact on those who rely on ferry service for access to work, school, and medical appointments.

As service will not be available for vehicles, complimentary water taxi-only service will be provided, along with complimentary shuttle service on Bowen Island between the terminal, the Royal Canadian Legion (1265 Scarborough Road) and the Transit Park & Ride location (1421 Adams Road).

Water taxis will run at scheduled sailing times, and will provide service as needed to help ensure you get to your destination. For more details on alternate service, shuttle schedules and parking, please visit the project page at: bcferriesprojects.ca/snug-cove-tp

If you choose to leave your vehicle in Horseshoe Bay overnight, complimentary parking will be available during the full-day berth closure. Details for reimbursement can be found in the FAQ on the right-hand side of this page.

If you live near the terminals, there’s a chance of increased noise levels. Our construction contractors will do everything possible to mitigate noise impacts for our neighbours.

Despite our best efforts, we recognize some customers will be impacted when travelling on this route, and we thank the community in advance for your patience as we complete this crucial work.
