The province has broken B.C. up into three travel zones: Vancouver Island, Interior/Northern Health and Vancouver Coastal/Fraser Health. Hope is included in the Interior/North zone, although residents can go to Chilliwack for essentials. Motorists breaking travel rules can be fined $230 for failing to follow instructions at a road check or $575 if the reason for travel violates the essential travel health order
Earlier, Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth said West Vancouver and Delta police departments would staff road checks at ferry terminals, while the RCMP would control road checks on highways between the regions. There are no road checks planned for the Alberta-B.C. border, although the province said signs will be put up.
