C-TRAN board approves service preservation measure

Area voters will decide in November whether they want C-TRAN to maintain its current level of service, while votes regarding the funding of light rail in Vancouver are expected to be submitted next year.

The measure, which will ask for an additional two cents tax on every $10 purchase, would pay for phase one of the 20-year Transit Development Plan. That would include improved service frequency on routes serving Vancouver, Camas, Washougal and Battle Ground.
