BC NDP commits to fully fund a $500M BRT line from Park Royal to Metrotown, if re-elected.

The BC NDP has committed to fully fund a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line connecting Park Royal to Metrotown if re-elected on October 19. Estimated at $500 million, this project aims to enhance transit efficiency and is a priority for the TransLink Mayors' Council. However, the council warns of potential service cuts due to a $600 million annual funding deficit. The NDP plans to extend the R2 RapidBus and develop future transit options in collaboration with stakeholders.
