Have your say on the future of our new Stanley Park bus route

A TransLink trolley bus travels through Stanley Park beneath blooming pink cherry blossoms, passing a park entrance sign on a curved road surrounded by trees and green space

We’re planning a new weekend-only seasonal bus route around Stanley Park, making it easier to reach some of the park’s most popular destinations by transit.

Funded through the 2025 Investment Plan, this route is designed to improve access to Stanley Park while helping reduce parking demand and vehicle congestion during busy periods.

Before anything is finalized, we want to hear from you.

How you can help 📝

Tell us what would make this service work best for you:

  • When you’d like the service to run, including hours and frequency

Your input will help shape the route ahead of a planned launch in the near future.

Proposed bus stop locations 📍

The route would start at Waterfront Station, travel along West Pender Street and West Georgia Street, then enter Stanley Park via Stanley Park Drive.

From there, it would loop through the park before returning downtown via the Stanley Park Causeway, West Georgia Street, West Pender Street, and Seymour Street.

In addition to existing stops downtown, the route would serve new stops within Stanley Park, including:

  • Stanley Park Drive at Info Booth
  • Stanley Park Drive at Totem Poles
  • Stanley Park Drive at Lumberman’s Arch
  • Stanley Park Drive at Pipeline Road
  • Stanley Park Drive at Prospect Point
  • Stanley Park Drive at Picnic Area
  • Stanley Park Drive at Teahouse
  • Stanley Park Drive at Second Beach
  • Lost Lagoon Road at Stanley Park Causeway (existing)
