Return of passenger rail between Victoria, Nanaimo hinges on safety review

The Island Corridor Foundation says the province’s safety review of a track upgrade plan is moving forward…but there’s no firm timeline.

The review is the last, and possibly biggest, hurdle to returning passenger rail between Victoria and Nanaimo, which was suspended more than four years ago.

Graham Bruce is the ICF’s Executive Director.

Regional District of Nanaimo Directors voted this week to put more pressure on the ICF for copies of reports on the upgrades and other information.

Regional Districts, the province and the feds have committed around $20,000,000 to get passenger service up and running again.
