CANADA LINE

CANADA LINE
******************
Description:
There will be 16 stations along the Canada Line comprising eight underground, two at grade and six elevated stations. Station construction requires more space than the guideway (tunnel/elevated) in order to accommodate the station platforms, walkways, and ancillary equipment. Station construction schedules will vary depending upon the size and complexity of the location, but range from 15 months to three years. In general, elevated stations will take 15 to 21 months to build, while underground stations will take 24 to 36 months. Following construction of the stations, the road surface will be restored.

Locations:
The 16 stations include:
Downtown Vancouver
Cambie Street
Richmond
YVR
Waterfront
Vancouver City Centre
Yaletown - Roundhouse
Olympic Village
Broadway - City Hall
King Edward
Oakridge - 41st Ave
Langara - 49th Ave
Marine Drive
Bridgeport
Aberdeen
Lansdowne
Richmond - Brighouse
Templeton
Sea Island Centre
YVR - Airport

Impacts:
Station construction may result in traffic impacts depending upon the station location and its relative position to the street. In particular, where underground stations are located under city streets, excavation of the station box will result in traffic closures and diversions, loss of parking, truck traffic, some noise and dust, and reduced business and pedestrian access.

SEA BUS DOWN TOWN VANCOUVER

SEA BUS SERVICES
********************


The ferries operate between approximately 6:00 a.m. and 1:00 a.m. daily. During the daytime from Monday to Saturday both ferries operate, with the two ferries departing simultaneously from opposite termini and passing each other halfway. The 1.75-nautical-mile (3.24 km) crossing takes 10-12 minutes in each direction with a cruising speed of 11.5 knots (21.3 km/h), with a 3-5 minute turnaround and, therefore, operates on a 15 minute turn-around schedule.[1] At these times, over 50 crossings are made a day. During the evenings and on Sundays, service is reduced to a 30 minute schedule with only one ferry operating.

The Burrard Otter SeaBus departing Lonsdale Quay.
The SeaBus is capable of operating on a 12 minute turnaround (or even 10 minutes with simultaneous loading and unloading). However, at the higher speeds, the wake created disturbs other users of the Burrard Inlet. During overloads they do sometimes operate at the higher speeds.
The turnstiles on the entrance into the SeaBus waiting area are used only for counting the number of passengers boarding the SeaBus. When the maximum number is reached the turnstiles will "lock" and no more passengers will be allowed on that SeaBus.
Traditionally, like all public transit in Vancouver, the Seabus offers free rides on New Year's Eve to discourage drinking and driving. See also: TransLink fares (Vancouver).
Constables from the South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority Police Service conduct random fare inspections, and failure to pay the correct fare can result in a $173 fine. Transit Security Officers also conduct random fare inspections. They also arrest persons committing criminal offences on TransLink property which include: SeaBus, Buses, SkyTrain, and West Coast Express trains.
