City of Chilliwack put out a reminder this week that there is free transit on offer for residents of Chilliwack all day on election day, Saturday, Oct. 15.

BC Transit announced Oct. 12 that several of the communities it services across the province were going to be offering free transit to make it easier for folks to get to voting stations. Chilliwack is one of them.

BC Transit said the take-the-bus-for-free decision is one made by local government partners in each community.
