Request issued for design and construction of downtown Belleville terminal
The $303-million Belleville Terminal redevelopment project has hit the next phase of improving the travelling experience for ferry passengers between downtown Victoria and Washington state.
“We have moved quickly from project approval to procurement to signal that this tourism and trade corridor is critical for the region,” said B.C. Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Rob Fleming, in a news release. “An improved modern terminal will be an economic generator on both sides of the border and will make it more convenient for the hundreds of thousands of passengers traveling through it every year.
“Belleville Terminal is a critical transportation hub and gateway,” said Robert Lewis-Manning, CEO of Greater Victoria Harbour Authority, in a statement. “The terminal contributes to a thriving ocean hub providing services to both visitors and freight from Port Angeles. These visitors bring millions of dollars of new revenue to our region every year, directly supporting jobs, small businesses, and significant tax contributions.
