BC's Passenger Transportation board has approved the following new bus routes (as of Oct 2018):
Rider Express Transportation - Route from Alberta border to Vancouver via Highway 1 and Highway 5. There will be 14 stops, including Golden, Salmon Arm, Chase, Merritt and Langley. It will be a reservation-based service that runs seven days a week, with two departure times per day. Rider Express eventually
plans to run service between B.C., Alberta, Manitoba and Ontario.
Diversified Transportation (DBA eBus) - Two routes serving Vancouver - Kamloops and Vancouver - Kelowna. Bookings are reservation-only.
The Vancouver-Kamloops route is daily semi-express departures from Vancouver and Kamloops. Buses will travel along Highway 1 and Highway 5, and additional stops
could be made in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Hope and Merritt. There will also be two daily express departures from both Vancouver and Kamloops via Kelowna in the morning and afternoon.
Wilson's Transportation - Two routes. Commuter, express-style service between Vancouver and Kamloops, and Vancouver and Kelowna. Plan is to operate one trip per day in each direction on a reservation-only basis.
Wilson's has also applied to provide service between Vancouver and Whistler, but a decision is still pending.
Silver City Stagelines - Reservation-only Nelson-Kelowna route, too run a minimum of six times per week. Stops planned in Castlegar, Trail, Grand Forks, Greenwood, Midway and Rock Creek. It replaces the company’s Trail-Castlegar route.
