Less congestion with higher transit ridership
The Surrey Rapid Transit Study projected:
- 72% higher ridership than an LRT on Fraser Highway
- Higher overall ridership throughout the South-of-Fraser
We believe a SkyTrain + BRT system will attain higher ridership because:
- SkyTrain has the best track record for attracting ridership in North America
- Canada Line rider surveys have shown that trip speed is most favoured aspect of new transit lines
- More travel time savings means higher convenience, more regular transit use
- Far more reliable service than an LRT system that is prone to accidents/disruptions
