Routes

Scheduled services

In 2013, Cache Creek decided to stop service to its town, meaning buses between Ashcroft and Clinton passed through the aforementioned town without stopping.[1] In 2017, 100 Mile house began being served once weekly for access to medical professionals.[2] In 2019, Cache Creek rejoined the transit system.[3] [4] Scheduled services previously occurred two days a week, though have now been increased to two daily services.[5]
