Report Columns

• Period - The report is grouped by Schedule time period
• Route - The report is sub grouped by route.  Departures form all major terminals in the South are shown.
• Departures - Total number of departures for which data was collected.
• Actual - number of departures expressed as a percentage  of total departures which actually sailed on time.
• E - 10 - (Early departure to 10 minutes late)  It is my contention that customers find a 10 minute  delay acceptable.  Bus schedules are not effected appreciably and connections to other ferries can usually be arranged.
• E - 20 - (Early departure to 20 minutes late)  BC Ferries states that a twenty delay is acceptable to travelling public and reports as on time any delay in the window departs early to departs up to and including minutes late.
