Seems logical. The King George/104th dogleg needs to be a new line - rather than two Expo branches, each with agonizing 10-12 minute headways - yet it's too short and not dense enough to justify an underground SkyTrain. Therefore, LRT.

I would much rather have a seamless BRT system that goes down to White Rock than an LRT system that stops somewhere in South Surrey. People commuting from the south to downtown Surrey don't need to transfer from bus to LRT just to get to downtown when a BRT system could just as effectively move them with less cost.
I strongly think that if Surrey wants LRT then Surrey should pay for it. My reason for saying that is because the LRT system will only connect within Surrey whereas all other Skytrain lines connect multiple municipalities together.
