News: TransLink to vote on study into Millenium Line extension

Wednesday, July 18 - 07:55:00 AM

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Another transit line could also be extended through Vancouver. TransLink will vote this week on whether to approve a $1 million study into running the Millenium Line from Commercial Drive to central Broadway, and eventually out to UBC. Vancouver Mayor Sam Sullivan supports the idea. If the expansion is completed, it should be done by 2009.
