ATTACHMENT A Page 1 of 5 November 9, 2010 Mayor Peter Fassbender Chair, Mayors' Council on Regional Transportation c/o City of Langley 20399 Douglas Crescent Langley, BC V3A 4B3 Dear Chair Fassbender, Re: 2011 Supplemental Plans On behalf of the Board of Directors of the South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority (TransLink), I am forwarding the two enclosed Transportation and Financial Supplemental Plans for 2011 to 2013, and Outlooks for 2014 to 2020, both approved by the Board, to the Mayors' Council on Regional Transportation. The purpose of presenting these supplemental plans is to provide the region's mayors with an opportunity to exercise their authority under the South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority Act to approve one of the options to expand Metro Vancouver's transportation network and confirm it as TransLink's 'base plan' for the next three years. Alternately, the Mayors Council may choose to not approve either of them and maintain the program in the current base plan. Both options include funding for the Evergreen SkyTrain Line connecting the Lougheed and Coquitlam town centres and for an extension of United Boulevard in Coquitlam as the first phase of the North Fraser Perimeter Road goods movement corridor from the Queensborough Bridge in New Westminster to Highway #1. One option, 'Delivering the Evergreen Line and the North Fraser Perimeter Road,' is confined to the two highest priority projects. The other, 'Moving Forward,' proposes additional road and transit improvements across Metro Vancouver, notably in the South of Fraser and North Shore sub-regions. All of these projects have been long-standing priorities and offer enormous benefits to the people of Metro Vancouver. -

Corporate Report
CORPORATE REPORT NO: R120 COUNCIL DATE: June 24, 2019 REGULAR COUNCIL TO: Mayor & Council DATE: June 20, 2019 FROM: Acting General Manager, Engineering FILE: 8740-01 SUBJECT: Future of Rapid Transit in Surrey RECOMMENDATION The Engineering Department recommends that Council: 1. Receive this report for information; 2. Endorse the principles attached as Appendix “I” to this report; and 3. Authorize staff to develop a Long-Range Rapid Transit Vision for input into TransLink’s Transport 2050 plan. INTENT The intent of this report is to inform Council on TransLink’s update of the Regional Transportation Strategy (now called Transport 2050), outline recommended principles for future rapid transit expansion in Surrey, and request support from Council for the development of a long-range rapid transit vision for Surrey’s submission to TransLink for inclusion in the Transport 2050 plan development process. BACKGROUND The Success of Previous Regional Transportation Plans Transportation and land use are integrally linked, as demonstrated by Metro Vancouver’s long history of coordinating land use and transportation investments. Many of the first coordinated efforts to integrate transit and land use were identified as part of Metro Vancouver’s (at that time known as Greater Vancouver Regional District or “GVRD”) first “Livable Region Plan” that, in 1975, established an urban land use pattern aimed at focusing growth and development in compact urban centres supported by an integrated, multi-modal transportation network. In 1993, prior to the creation of TransLink, the GVRD prepared “A Long-Range Transportation Plan for Greater Vancouver”, known as Transport 2021. This plan was instrumental in identifying an end-state vision for transportation that included policies and capital improvements aligned with regional land use goals. -
Translink Launches Historic New Bus Sevice
MEDIA RELEASE TransLink launches historic new bus service RapidBus brings faster, more frequent service to eight Metro Vancouver communities January 6, 2020 COQUITLAM, B.C. – TransLink launches RapidBus on four routes – bringing customers up to 20 per cent faster bus service with higher frequencies, fewer stops, dedicated bus lanes, bus priority changes to intersections, and all-door boarding. RapidBus provides a more reliable bus service that can move more than 10,000 people per hour at peak times. The new service is made possible through investments from Phase One of the Mayors’ Vision, the Government of Canada, and the Province of BC. “We’re stepping up our bus game,” says TransLink CEO Kevin Desmond. “RapidBus is a crucial part of improving the region’s bus service through the Mayors’ Vision. These RapidBus routes will benefit eight communities and bring our customers a more reliable bus service that they deserve.” Coming every 10 minutes or better during peak hours and every 15 minutes or better in non-peak hours, customers can now catch a RapidBus on these four routes: • R1 King George Blvd – (Guildford Exchange/Newton Exchange) o Every eight minutes during peak hours • R3 Lougheed Hwy (Coquitlam Central Station/Haney Place) o Every ten minutes during peak hours • R4 41st Ave (UBC/Joyce-Collingwood Station) o Every three to six minutes during peak hours • R5 Hastings St (SFU/Burrard Station) o Every four to five minutes during peak hours RapidBus customers will enjoy new customer amenities such as softer seats, more space on 60-foot articulated buses, real-time digital signage, and audio next-bus information at RapidBus stops. -
