Less than an hour after the province announced travel restrictions are being lifted, BC Ferries tweeted that its website had gone down.
Amidst a number of reopening announcements made Monday morning, the province noted that recreational travel between health regions will be allowed as of Tuesday. Tourism operators can take bookings from out-of-region visitors and B.C. Ferries will be allowed to service non-essential travelers once again.
Soon after the announcement was made, BC Ferries said its website was “currently unavailable” and thanked people for being patient.
As of 12:30 p.m., the website is back up and taking bookings.
