The Heriot Bay and Whaletown terminals play a critical role in connecting the Quadra Island and Cortes Island communities. The marine infrastructures at both terminals are nearing the end of their service life. As populations on both islands grow, we want to ensure the terminals remain safe and easy to access for all members of the public.

Upcoming terminal upgrades are focused on replacing marine terminal infrastructure to accommodate new, higher capacity Island class vessels, and reducing roadway congestion to create safer, easier access to the terminals for vehicles and walk-on passengers.
