Coronavirus: BC Transit making more changes to stop spread of virus The latest data, from the start of July, shows transit use has rebounded somewhat.At that point, the report said passenger numbers were down 40 per cent from the year before.However, the report predicts demand will not be back to where it was before the pandemic anytime soon, and that ridership will be down in the fall as many post-secondary students are expected to be attending classes online.
The major drop in passenger numbers is expected to contribute to a multi-million dollar financial hit to the city’s transit service.
