Can I get to Steveston by bus?

I'm wondering if I can take Pacific Coach and local bus to get to Steveston. I'm taking ferry from Victoria. If it's possible, where should I take transit buses and how long does it take from Tsawwassen to Steveston?

Thanks for asking, Teruyo. The answer is yes. As Pacific Coach would take you all the way to Vancouver with a stop at Vancouver International Airport, I'll start off with a link to transit directions from the airport. There are currently three options, with the best taking 21 minutes and the worst 53. Just enter "AIRPORT STATION, RUSS BAKER WAY @ MILLER RD, RICHMOND" or "AIRPORT - YVR, GRANT MCCONACHIE WAY, RICHMOND" in the From field and "STEVESTON TRANSIT TERMINUS, CHATHAM ST@ 2 AV, RICHMOND" in the To field. Also, select your desired date and time, as well as your Search Options then click the Next Step button. All trips currently cost $2.50 (exact change) and will require 0 to 2 transfers.
The trip from the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal will take much longer (1 hr. 17 min. to 1 hr. 32 min.), will cost $3.75 and require 1 to 2 transfers. There are currently three options. Just enter "TSAWWASSEN FERRY TERMINAL" in the From field and "STEVESTON TRANSIT TERMINUS, CHATHAM ST@ 2 AV, RICHMOND" in the To field. Also, select your desired date and time, as well as your Search Options then click the Next Step button.
