BCTA is pleased to announce that 12 trainees and their instructors are putting the new BC Professional (Truck) Driver Training Program through its paces at the Mountain Transport Institute this fall.

Here's the announcement and more details about the program.

Hiring a Motor Coach?

If you're chartering a motor coach for a sports event, day trip, night out on the town, or a holiday excursion, make sure you do your homework. Hire a company that puts safety first.
