A toast to 30 years of the 99

Since launching on September 3, 1996, the 99 B-Line has become a Metro Vancouver icon – connecting customers across the region and ranking as TransLink’s busiest bus route year after year.

Between 2022 and 2025 alone, the route averaged more than 10.5 million boardings annually, helping millions of customers get to work, school, appointments, and everywhere in between.

Now, we’re celebrating this milestone with a limited-edition drink inspired by one of the most recognizable routes in the system.

A creative way to keep Metro Vancouver moving

This limited-edition soda is more than a fun way to celebrate the 99 B-Line — it’s also one example of how we’re exploring creative collaborations that generate revenue beyond fares and can be reinvested back into the transit system. Every dollar TransLink earns from this collaboration helps support the transit service people across Metro Vancouver rely on every day.
