That said, yes, the main inter-regional RRT backbone (to Langley, etc) should be purely Skytrain; localized rapid lines can be Skytrain or LRT on a case-by-case basis.

Trust me, the Broadway line extension will effect the entire Metro Vancouver area. There's lots of University students and workers heading to UBC from Surrey. Whereas Surrey's LRT is only going to be used by Surrey citizens which is why I think that an LRT project should be funded by the people who will actually use it.
