Why this petition matters

Started by Patrons of Route 6

We the Residents of Salt Spring Island, the Town of Crofton, Vancouver Island in particular the Municipality of North Cowichan, Cowichan Valley Regional District and the Regional District of Nanaimo.

Petition the CEO and Management Team of BC Ferries to mitigate the traffic congestion at Vesuvius Bay, Crofton and Fulford Harbour in an effort to restore our local communities free of ferry traffic gridlock.

The plausible and timely "Fix for Route Six" is to introduce a 2 Ferry Service between Vesuvius Bay and Crofton in the Spring of 2022. Similar to what is happening to Route 19 Nanaimo - Gabriola Island this coming Spring. With the potential side effect of easing traffic gridlock at Fulford Harbour and sailing waits at all three ferry terminals. 

With the bounce back in Ferry Traffic from June of 2021, Route 6 is up 19% from the same period in 2019. The situation has become "Intolerable" for most patrons.

Join us this Holiday Season in politely Petitioning the Management Team of BC Ferries to commission a two ferry service for the Spring of 2022. 

Happy Holidays Everyone!

From the Frequent Patrons of Route 6 - Vesuvius Bay - Crofton.
