BC Transit and the Victoria Regional Transit Commission announced that there will be a seasonal service change starting June 30 in accordance with the end of the school year.

To address an increase in tourist demand, more weekend trips are being added to Route 70 Swartz Bay/Downtown, and Route 70X Swartz Bay/Downtown Express. Service is also being added to Route 75 Saanichton/Royal Oak/Downtown between Butchart Gardens/Keating Cross and downtown, which includes "significantly" more trips on Saturdays, according to a news release.

As part of the service change, Route 17 Cedar Hill will be discontinued for the summer.

"Minor trip time adjustments are being made to several routes to improve service reliability and timed connections," noted a news release.
