It’s day 25 of the transit strike in Metro Vancouver. And as we know, there will be a shutdown of bus and SeaBus services later this week, on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

This hour, Translink’s CEO, Kevin Desmond, has told the public about extra resources that are being added to other parts of the transit network, to help keep you moving during the transit strike.

He says there are more than 100,000 students who use transit to get to classes every day.

And there are roughly 100,000 workers who use transit - and who do not have a car, or a driver’s licence.

So what’s still running? SkyTrain, Canada Line, and West Coast Express will be operating. West Vancouver Transit will be running - but people there should keep in mind that the 257 Horseshoe Bay route will not.

 

And as Kevin Desmond wrapped up that press conference - he had this message for Unifor.
