With a LRT subway, you can also have LRT from UBC to Downtown, LRT Arbutus, and Streetcar Granville Island/False Creek Flats, all in one.

The only problem with any LRT subway idea is the fact we aren't saving any money at the end of the day.
So if there is no cost savings, why not make it another skytrain line? Something that would form a loop connecting Kits to downtown through the West End, passing up by Stanely Park before running along Coal Harbour to Waterfront Station, with a future extension along E. Hastings to Burnaby.
