Kootenay Lake Ferry Service Improvements
The Kootenay Lake Ferry operates vehicle and passenger service between Balfour and Kootenay Bay, a distance of nearly nine km. The MV Osprey 2000, built in 2000, operates year-round, and the MV Balfour, built in 1954, operates in the summer when the demand is higher. Following two rounds of public consultation we are improving the ferry service.
Improvements
Improvements to the Kootenay Lake Ferry service will feature 4 components.
