Feds Boost Whistler Rural Transit Infrastructure

Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada

The Resort Municipality of Whistler will benefit from improved transit infrastructure after a joint investment of $500,000.

Over the past five years, Whistler's transit system has surpassed record ridership in the winter, and grown significantly throughout the rest of the year. The system is used daily, especially during the winter season, by residents for essential services and work, students commuting to school, and visitors traveling around the resort municipality. The funding will support the installation of bus shelters, lighting, benches, and other supporting infrastructure.

These upgrades aim to improve passenger experience, accessibility, and safety, while reducing environmental impacts and traffic congestion, making it easier for both residents and visitors to navigate Whistler.
