Mayor’s $8 billion SkyTrain estimate not supported by evidence
The mayor’s dismissal of future SkyTrain to Newton and South Surrey based on a cost that hasn’t even been studied yet is deeply irresponsible.

BRT arrives first, but the real decision is coming — which SkyTrain model should follow on King George Boulevard?
The BC NDP have not pledged to match the BC Conservatives’ promise for SkyTrain to Newton.
We applaud the BC Conservative Party’s commitment to building a King George Boulevard SkyTrain to Newton in Surrey and clearly indicating that this will be SkyTrain, not light rail.
We believe that no further study is required to assess the need for grade-separated rapid transit (SkyTrain) on King George Boulevard.
As Downtown Surrey emerges as the largest ridership anchor for the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain, new development proposals highlight the need for grade-separation and high carrying capacity.
