City Council and senior City staff has a quick peek at the new shuttle that will whisk skiers up to RMR this winter. Purchased with Tourism Infrastructure money the 45-passenger shuttle was comfy and provided a smooth ride for Mayor Raven and City Council as they went on a quick tour in the machine. Here are a couple of photos from the event last Tuesday:
Revelstoke has a brand-new shuttle bus to deliver skiers to and from RMR. The 45-seat bus, shown on the right in this photo taken last Tuesday, October 15, brings the number of ski shuttles to three and they’ll be well used. Two will be in operation at any one time. Posing this photo are (from left to right): RMR General Manager Rob Elliott, Community Economic Development Director Alan Mason, Engineering Director Mike Thomas, RMR’s Steve Bailey, Mayor Dave Raven, Councillors Gary Starling, Tony Scarcella, Linda Nixon and Phil Welock, and driver Lisa Longinotto.

That’s Brent Lea behind the wheel and fellow driver Lisa Longinotto up front. It was a pretty smooth ride. The new shuttle can carry 45 skiers and all their gear, compared to 35 on the old shuttles.
