Cyberattack Recovery • Translink's IT Systems and Related CMBC Applications Were Taken Offline Due to a Cyberattack on Decem
PRESIDENT & GENERAL MANAGER’S REPORT MARCH 25, 2021 TRANSLINK BOARD MEETING Cyberattack Recovery TransLink’s IT systems and related CMBC applications were taken offline due to a cyberattack on December 1, 2020. Through December during the network disruption, all CMBC departments ran in ‘fallback mode’ with manual processes. For example: assigning Transit Operators to buses, parts order tracking and maintenance planning, capital projects approval, and activities to support Access Transit customers were all handled via phone, paper, and pen. As part of the ongoing recovery efforts, key CMBC systems have been brought back on-line and this work continues on a system priority basis. TransLink Strategic Priority: CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AND PUBLIC SUPPORT CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE Reindeer Bus In December 2020, five additional Reindeer Buses were staged for the holidays, bringing the total to seven. One conventional bus for each depot and one Community Shuttle running out of Port Coquitlam Transit Centre spread cheer throughout the holiday season. Winter Service Changes Signage was installed across the system to notify customers about Winter Service Changes that went into effect on January 4, 2021. Bus service levels across the region were adjusted to provide more space and reliable trips on busier routes. Winter Weather Response and Readiness Transit Communications (TComm) continues to be in frequent communication with all Metro Vancouver municipalities to ensure transit routes and all priority corridors are maintained during snowy conditions. All municipalities, universities, and snow removal contractors shared their COVID-19 response and readiness plans with TComm. Information was gathered from internal and external stakeholders to create a snow removal map to identify areas where snow can be piled to mitigate stacking of buses.

DIALOG BC Architecture Engineering Interior Suite #700 – 55 St Clair Ave W, Design Planning Inc. Toronto, ON, M4V 2Y7 Suite 406 – 611 Alexander Street Vancouver, BC, V6A 1E1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ● Proposal: To develop six new underground SkyTrain stations and transit plazas as part of the Broadway Subway Project. Stations locations are as follows: GNW- Emily Carr, Mount Pleasant, Broadway City Hall (interchange station integrated with the existing Canada Line), Oak – VGH, South Granville and Arbutus. Note: The project is being delivered by the Province, therefore does not require a development permit and instead follows the Design Advisory Process (DAP). The Province of British Columbia is leading the procurement and delivery of the Broadway Subway Project (BSP) therefore a development permit is not required. Instead, the BSP moves through a shadow process called the Design Advisory Process (DAP), the same process undertaken by the City for the review of the Canada Line Stations.

Information Bulletin
INFORMATION BULLETIN For Immediate Release Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure 2021TRAN0059-000813 May 3, 2021 Updated Broadway Subway exterior station designs open to public input VANCOUVER ʹWith Broadway Subway project site preparations underway and major construction soon to begin, the updated street-level designs of the six new Broadway Subway stations are available for public feedback. The online open house of the proposed station designs began on April 29, 2021, and runs through May 12. The project team is asking for input on the above-ground station features, including entrances, the adjacent plazas and other street-level aspects of the stations, as part of the station͛s design advisory process, developed in collaboration with the City of Vancouver. The first online open house on station design was held in fall 2020. In response to public participation and feedback from project partners, the station designs have been updated to include: improved lighting; accessible paving treatments (tactile, coloured, slip-resistant) to make station access safer for all; reconfigured bike parking amenities; enhanced seating in exterior station plazas; and better integration with the neighbourhood and design features to provide a sense of place. Input from this second online open house will be considered in finalizing the station͛s street- level designs. The Broadway Subway project is a 5.7-kilometre extension of the Millennium Line from sůĂƌŬ^ƚĂƚŝŽŶƚŽƌŽĂĚǁĂǇĂŶĚƌďƵƚƵƐ͕ǁŝƚŚƐŝǆŶĞǁƐƚĂƚŝŽŶƐ͘/ƚǁŝůůƉƌŽǀŝĚĞĨĂƐƚ͕ĨƌĞƋƵĞŶƚ and convenient SkyTrain service to B.C.͛s second-largest jobs centre, world-class health-care services, an emerging innovation and research hub, and growing residential communities.
