Carney was just asked about subsidizing BC Ferries. On that topic....
Has a
phased approach to an island fixed-link ever been proposed?
The geographic and cost issues of a tunnel/bridge etc seem to lie mostly in the Salish Sea. But getting a road to the edge of Galiano Island is much easier. It would shorten the Ferry to 40min from 1h40min. This would also double the ferry frequency. Doubling its capacity as a result. With a high speed ferry, the ferry-time could be shorter than 20mins. Quadrupling the frequency and capacity. Very reasonable.
Has this ever been proposed?
