Transport Through Ages

A century of innovation that shaped how Vancouver moves.

The Streetcar Era Begins

Vancouver's first electric streetcars hit the streets, laying the foundation for public transit and rapid urban expansion across the lower mainland.

Rails to Rubber

The transition to rubber tires is completed. The last streetcars are retired in favor of a modern, flexible fleet of buses and trolleybuses.

SeaBus Sets Sail

The iconic SeaBus ferries begin crossing the Burrard Inlet, seamlessly and elegantly linking North Vancouver with Downtown.

The SkyTrain Revolution

Launched for Expo 86, the automated SkyTrain redefines rapid transit in the region, introducing revolutionary driverless technology.

1986

Connecting the Airport

Just ahead of the 2010 Winter Olympics, the Canada Line opens, providing a crucial high-speed link from YVR Airport to the city center.

Sustainable Expansion

With the Broadway Subway and Surrey Langley extensions, Metro Vancouver continues to build a sustainable, region-wide network for the future.

Risk Factors

01

TransLink Financial Strain

Rising costs and limited funding severely restrict the ability to maintain frequent and reliable service.

02

Impact on Service to BNSS

Without robust support, fewer buses will be allocated to routes serving Burnaby North Secondary, leading to critical overcrowding.

03

Consequence of Inaction

Reduced service directly compromises students' ability to arrive safely and on time.
