That’s right, folks. The Buzzzzzz is back.

We know y’all are hitting the beach this summer, and we’re making sure you can get there!

Summer service changes are happening on June 26, meaning more trips to the beach and fun summer destinations and a lot of other great improvements. Many of these improvements are courtesy of the 10-Year Vision – bringing approximately $2 billion in investments in transit and transportation in Metro Vancouver.

Let’s check out the seasonal changes taking place.

Seasonal

• Extra trips between Downtown Vancouver and Stanley Park to accommodate increased summer demand. Extra trips will run from West Pender and Cambie streets to Stanley Park Loop.

• Seasonal weekend-only service between Alma and Spanish Banks Beach returns for the summer!

C52 Seaside/White Rock Centre (Seasonal)
