Here’s a REAL deal: free bus service ’til 2013!

Here’s a real deal: travel anywhere in Revelstoke for the rest of the month for free.

It doesn’t matter if you’re new to town or a life-long resident; if you need to get downtown from the Big Eddy or Arrow Heights or from one end of town to the other, BC Transit’s Revelstoke service will get you there swiftly and — until December 31 — for free on Revelstoke’s two new community buses.

And that goes for HandyDART service, too.

Bus schedules are available at the Community Centre and City Hall or click here to see it online in PDF format.

Ride the buses for free all month now because fares, which hadn’t been raised in 20 years, will go up on January 2. Here are the new fares, which come into effect net year:
