B.C. Ferries will scrap 32 round-trip sailings between Swartz Bay and Tsawwassen this fall and winter, making it a little harder to get off the island.

The service reduction on the major route will impact periodic afternoon sailings on Fridays and Sundays, as well as some Saturday morning sailings.

B次元官网网址淲e certainly have the enough capacity (to carry all passengers) with the sailings we will sail,B次元官网网址� said Deborah Marshall, executive director of public affairs.

Regular odd-hour service will continue, and the reduction will only impact some even-hour sailings.

Two other major routes B次元官网网址� Horseshoe Bay to Departure Bay, and Horseshoe Bay to Duke Point B次元官网网址� will see fewer sailings, too.

B次元官网网址淭his is all in an effort to save dollars, which helps keep fares lower,B次元官网网址� Marshall said.

She said itB次元官网网址檚 estimated the 98 total scrapped sailings will save B.C. Ferries $1 million this year.
