Connect the Expo Line and Millenium Line in Vancouver.
Okay if you don’t live in Vancouver you probably don’t get this one. The idea is to link the two lines to ease congestion in the downtown core, and at the bottleneck where the two lines converge. The transfer point at Commercial/Broadway is crazy. I take this train often, and it is cramped and really unpleasant if you are trying to board from Joyce onward to downtown.
Idea for merging the two lines.
The extension would follow Quebec St and meander to Waterfront station. With this extension, passenger traffic downtown will be more evenly distributed between both platform directions in peak times, with no transfers for *Millenium Line passengers. (*Okay I may have misspelled on both counts!)
I know this diverts from the ideas posted so far. I do intend to mix it up and post all kinds of ideas, big and small.
