$14 Billion For Transit

[Jared]

So are they gonna loop it back up to 104th then? Of have it junction where it crosses 104th ave between gateway and surrey central?

BTW, whats everyones thoughts on this alginment vs. going south down King George? As officedweller mentioned, building a wye would be prudent.

Langley City to Waterfront is really beyond the scope of a system like SkyTrain, at that point you will start needing Commuter/Regional rail type service. I think it will come with time. I suppose we should remember not everyone going from Langley is headed to downtown, so an extension to Langley could be useful in getting people to other (closer) parts of the lower mainland, such as Surrey or New West.

It's also encouraging to hear politicians seem to be finally getting it WRT Transit Oriented Development (based on comments from Falcon and Watts). Hopefully councils throughout the GVRD will grow some backbone with this, and start rezoning for higher density at all stations.


mezzanine, no mention of LRT vs. SkyTrain for Evergreen I take it?
