COLWOOD, B.C. — A new provincial distribution centre in Colwood for BC Transit’s bus fleet has just received $20.6 million in funding.
The centre will act as an important distribution centre to ensure bus availability, support fleet maintenance and serve as a central space for spare parts, states a news release.
The Government of Canada is investing $2,339,374, the Government of British Columbia $8,437,128 and local governments $9,893,892.
The funds will upgrade three warehouse bases in Colwood to establish the central facility.
