Traffic was steady at the Tsawwassen ferry terminal Friday morning, as B.C. heads into the Victoria Day long weekend. Health officials and the B.C.
government have urged people to avoid all non-essential travel over the weekend, as the province works towards further containing COVID-19.
Some passengers Global News spoke with at the terminal acknowledged they were heading away for a holiday, but cited precautions such as plans to stay in their vehicle and to isolate at a cabin.
Others said they were headed to the island for work. Despite the steady traffic at the terminal, BC Ferries spokesperson Deborah Marshall said traffic is significantly down.
