A call by mayor Murray Skeels to the executive director of the Metro Vancouver Mayor’s Council, Mike Buda, brought good news for Peter King and the people who ride his bus: TransLink has approved the contract that will allow the service to continue operating for another year.
Mayor Skeels says that he is really pleased about the news, and sees it as a potential game-changer in commuting from Bowen Island.
Peter King says this is still just a step, and is eager to actually see a contract.
“I submitted a contract and have not had anything returned to me so I can only assume they are agreeing to my conditions,” says King. “But I get the fact that TransLink is up to its armpits dealing with the “yes” and “no” question in the referendum. We’re small potatoes.”
