Engagement Summary
Public feedback was invited as part of the station Design Advisory Process for the Broadway Subway Project.
The purpose of the first open house was to share information and receive feedback about the above ground portion of the stations, including entrances, adjacent plazas, emergency exits and ventilation locations. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related safety requirements for physical distancing, the open house was held in an online environment.
The Broadway Subway Project is a 5.7 km extension of the Millennium Line, from VCC-Clark Station to Broadway and Arbutus. It will provide fast, frequent, and convenient SkyTrain service to B.C.’s second largest jobs centre, world-class health services, an emerging innovation and research hub, and growing residential communities. More information is available on the Broadway Subway website.
