Charting the Course: A Vision for Coastal Ferry Services
The Charting the Course initiative was undertaken with the leadership of the BC Ferries Services Board and the B.C. Ferry Authority Board to establish a vision for a sustainable, resilient and forward-thinking ferry system that not only addresses today’s challenges but is also prepared for the future. This involves understanding and integrating community insights to shape services and policies that resonate with the evolving needs of passengers, our people and the communities we serve.
Charting the Course is a forward-looking vision shaped by input from passengers, communities, First Nations, elected officials and sector stakeholders. It defines what is needed to keep people, goods, and services in coastal communities connected and moving through to 2050 and beyond.
Charting the Course looks ahead 25 years to the challenges and opportunities facing the coastal ferry system and sets out the goals that will help inform future decisions. The vision identifies five goals to guide decision-making in the public interest: reliable and available; convenient and integrated; safe and comfortable; environmentally sensitive and resilient; and, affordable and efficient. Together, these goals can provide a north star for all who plan, regulate, fund, and deliver ferry services, ensuring decisions are anchored in the evolving needs of British Columbians.
For more details on the goals, the feedback that shaped them, and the steps that will be required to ensure ferry services continue to support the people, communities, and economies of coastal British Columbia for decades to come read the full report here: bcferries.com/in-the-community/resources.
