TransLink is launching four "Rapid Bus" routes in Metro Vancouver today and two are new to the system.

The R-3 Lougheed Highway bus runs between Coqutilam and Maple Ridge, and the R-4 41st Avenue bus runs between the Joyce Station and UBC.

The other two routes are the R-1 bus along King George Boulevard in Surrey, and the R-5 down Hastings in Burnaby and Vancouver.

A 5th route on Marine Drive between the Phibbs Exchange and Park Royal on the North Shore will launch in the spring.
