i think another north-south line, probably along Willingdon and passing through Metrotown, Brentwood, BCIT, Playland, and going into North Van, turning west until the Seabus terminal would be ideal. To the south it could stretch to Queensborough and then South Surrey.
It'll never go all the way to West Van though, too many NIMBYs.
But we desperately need a skytrain line that crosses the Burrard inlet.
They've already greenlit a skytrain line from North Van over the second narrows. They havent decided between their two options of either going south to metrotown, or turning west along hastings-ish. But they said they won't start construction until around 2030 (which I'm just expecting to be delayed further)
I think its supposed to go through to Park Royal.
Skip westvan.
Playland - cap college - sentinel/99 - cypress/99 - horseshoe
Fuck the rich bitches.
But Horseshoe Bay
West Van is an absolute nightmare to get to from anywhere in Metro Van
