Overnight Project Work
Nanaimo Harbour Terminal
September 20 – October 29, 2026

To support safe and reliable service, maintenance work will take place on the timber trestle at Nanaimo Harbour terminal overnight between September 20 and October 29, 2026.

Work will take place between 10:00 pm and 5:30 am, Sundays through Thursdays. We do not expect any impact to our regular scheduled operations.
