As of tomorrow, the price for an adult passenger trip from Tsawwassen to Swartz Bay will cost $15.50.

That’s up from the current fare of $14.85.

The same trip for a vehicle up to 20-feet will go from $49.25 to $51.25.

BC Ferries says the fare hikes are needed because of the rising cost of operating and capital expenditures.
