  • Translink boosting bus service as of September

Metro Vancouver’s transit authority is boosting bus services this fall as students return to schools across the region.

TransLink says it will increase service levels on 22 bus routes starting on September 4, in addition to introducing a new extension for route 44 directly linking West Vancouver and U-B-C.

TransLink says service is also being boosted on four separate routes serving U-B-C and other schools such as S-F-U and Capilano University.

The service changes also include a rerouting of route 531 in Surrey to offer direct access businesses in the Campbell Heights industrial area.
