I've been busy and haven't had a chance to go to Alpha Lake park for awhile, probably a long while. I had no idea Whistler was charging for parking there. That's how long it has been.
Then, I was pleasantly surprised!
Twenty years of promising free transit, and here it was!
What a day!
I parked and was able to hop on and off the bus all day.
I had a really good time.
It seemed fair that if I had to pay for parking, transit was free, as promised by mayors and council for years.
Congratulations Whistler on taking climate change seriously and committing to action!
Free transit is a good first step. I look forward to using transit far more often.
Keep the climate leadership going! We don't have much time.
Next up, a climate clock for Whistler! climateclock.world.
(Editor’s note: Whistler is offering free transit until Labour Day in an effort to rebuild ridership following the transit strike earlier this year. The Resort Municipality of Whistler is not considering making transit free forever at this time.)
