Transport 2050
Consultation has concluded
Transport 2050 Phase 3 engagement has launched! Review the proposed strategy and take the survey. This page is for Phase 1 engagement and is archived.
TransLink is leading the development of a new Regional Transportation Strategy, called Transport 2050. At the same time, Metro Vancouver is developing Metro 2050, an updated regional growth strategy. Together, these strategies will shape our region over the next 30 years.
Phase 1 of Transport 2050 has concluded. Through our largest ever public engagement, we spoke to over 158,000 people at 315 events in 27 municipalities in Metro Vancouver and beyond. Find out what we heard by reading, “Shaping Our Transportation Future, Together.”
Transport 2050 will resume public consultation in 2021. In the meantime, we’ll be delivering some engaging content on how the pandemic is shaping the future of transportation. Stay tuned!

How will Metro Vancouver change over the next 30 years? How will you move between the places you need to go? In an ideal world, what changes – big and small – would make Metro Vancouver’s transportation system work better for everyone?
From May 3 to September 22, 2019, people from across the region submitted thousands of ideas for transit, walking, cycling, driving and new ways to move around the region.
See the archived Ideas Board below. What else did we hear in Phase 1? See the report, "Shaping Our Transportation Future, Together”. Or read the Phase 1 stakeholder submissions.
Please note: Ideas that were submitted by the "Public Engagement Team" were ideas we collected from individuals in-person at our Transport 2050 installation at the 2019 PNE Fair.

Skytrain to the Valley
Skytrain to the valley by the centre of the freeway. Each turn/exit has a large land area, use for parking and fed by buses. These stations will be at all major cross streets now in existence. More buses can be put into service to feed these terminals. All the way to Chilliwack or beyond. Could even implement freight cars. Open up southern old train line in southern Surrey that still exists.

More advertisement of Transit
Especially aimed at middle aged suburbanites. We need to get more people into public transit to address the climate crisis, but many people living in suburban areas don't even consider using transit. More ads might get it onto people's minds more & reiterate that transit is an option for more than just students or people living downtown.
