People looking to avoid traffic during this year’s Peach Festival will be getting a little relief from the bus service along Main Street.

From Aug. 3 to Aug. 7, BC Transit is extending its bus times for the Route 5 bus, which runs along Main Street to the Cherry Lane Shopping Centre

Typically both buses that run along Main Street end their services just past 6:40, but for the festival, Route 5 will continue its hourly service until 11:41, when it will make its final departure from Martin Street and Lakeshore Drive.
