The news keeps coming in terms of bus service in Nelson as the provincial deliverer of the service announced more route changes in the city.
BC Transit said service changes to Nelson include a new 10 North Shore run to Balfour. The last trip will now leave downtown Nelson at 8:40 p.m. and arrive at Balfour at 9:25 p.m.
News of the extended service gave Area F director Ron Mickel, who has been pushing for the additions, some satisfaction.
