A key part of our Access for Everyone plan, which outlines transit priorities over the next years, is to deliver better access to nature.

We’re doing just that thanks to new funding unlocked through the 2025 Investment Plan, which includes the largest increase to bus service since 2018.

We’re proposing four new seasonal bus routes on weekends and holidays during the summer months to Belcarra Regional Park, Campbell Valley Regional Park, Centennial Beach, and Golden Ears Provincial Park.

As we work towards finalizing these routes for launch, we want to hear from you!

Take the online survey at translink.ca/newserviceareas between now and Dec. 19.

We plan to start operating the Belcarra, Campbell Valley, and Golden Ears park routes as early as this summer. The Centennial Beach route will follow in summer 2027, pending the completion of parking lot renovations.

The new routes will improve access to nature for everyone — including people who are unable or choose not drive — ensuring equitable access to Metro Vancouver’s outdoor spaces. It will also reduce congestion and parking pressures.
