EBus to service Shuswap, Enderby and Armstrong

Sep 11, 2019 | 6:16 PM

After taking the reigns from Greyhound a year ago, Calgary-based EBus has announced they will begin to service the Shuswap and parts of the North Okanagan starting in October.

The bus company will expand to Salmon Arm, Sorrento, Chase, Enderby and Armstrong beginning Oct. 7.

“We’ve been monitoring the transportation options in BC very closely and to assist in increasing connectivity options, we believe expanding our operations to these communities will aid in that effort,” said Dean Wright, Vice President of Motorcoach.

“We’re fortunate that in our operations, we have the opportunity to be nimble and respond to the needs of the marketplace, strategically setting our schedules and destinations to answer the call of our passengers and what we believe are their reasons for using our service,” he said

People can begin to register for the newly expanded route on Sept. 23.

The pick-up and drop-off locations are as follows:

– Salmon Arm: Husky service station at 50 Trans Canada Highway

– Sorrento Eastbound: Highway Stop at 1235 Trans Canada Highway (in front of Subway)

– Sorrento Westbound: Highway Stop at 1258 Trans Canada Highway (in front of the Petro-Canada station)

– Chase: Chase Visitor Information Centre at 400 Shuswap Ave

– Enderby: Enderby Chamber of Commerce at 700 Railway St.

– Armstrong: Highway 1 at Petro-Canada station at 3160 Smith Dr.

Ebus currently has routes servicing Vancouver, Kelowna, and Kamloops
