Ferries for the Next Generation

We're thinking about you, the environment and the future of travel as we design ferries that will serve Metro Vancouver and Vancouver Island for future generations. We'd like to show you what we've been up to and invite you into conversations that will help shape your future onboard experience.
We are getting ready to build new ferries to replace four of our existing vessels (Queen of Alberni, Queen of New Westminster, Queen of Coquitlam, and Queen of Cowichan). This is one of the biggest projects we have ever undertaken and there is a lot to consider as we work to keep fares affordable, reduce our environmental impact, plan for changing demands, and enhance customer experience.
Our key considerations include:
What we've heard
We heard from over 11,000 people in our first phase of engagement that asked people to share ideas on how they would like to experience their ferries of the future. We'd like to thank everyone who took the time to share their thoughts with us.
Engagement results can be found in the Document Library section on the right-hand side of this page.
What's next?
Our Ferries for the Next Generation Project remains part of our long-term planning. However, there is no upcoming engagement planned at this time. Updated information and future engagement opportunities will be posted on this page.
