A new petition on Change.org is pushing to improve transit services in the Central Okanagan. 

Started by Fraser Young, the petition states that there are no services for Vernon residents to use BC Transit to get to 琉璃神社's downtown area before 8:30 a.m.

Young's request is that Bus 97 which traditionally starts at 6 a.m. at UBC Okanagan in 琉璃神社's north end connect with Route 90 allowing for Vernon residents to catch a bus to 琉璃神社 or West 琉璃神社 starting at 5 a.m.

"We believe that everyone should have equal access to public transportation, and no one should be left stranded due to systemic shortfalls," the petition reads. "Additionally, facilitating easier travel between these areas could stimulate economic and social growth in both communities while lowering environmental footprint by attracting drivers to switch to transit. Tourists and travellers could also make use of this regular occurring bus to go to and from West 琉璃神社, 琉璃神社, Lake Country and Greater Vernon to 琉璃神社 International Airport."
