VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – A mechanical issue on the Queen of New Westminster has forced a series of cancellations on BC Ferries Thursday, which might cause headaches for those travelling to and from Vancouver Island.

The 10:15 a.m. and 3:15 p.m. sailings from Tsawwassen to Duke Point have been cancelled. The 12:45 p.m. and 5:45 p.m. sailings from Duke Point to Tsawwassen have also been called off.

Later sailings on that route are still a go, at this point.
