Broadway to close for weekend work at Commercial-Broadway SkyTrain Station

TRANSLINK is alerting drivers that there will be a full road closure of Broadway from 9 p.m. on Friday, June 15 to 8 a.m. on Sunday, June 17. Crews will be removing the temporary work platform used to construct the new overhead walkway at Commercial-Broadway SkyTrain Station, as well as making sidewalk repairs and installing a new 99 B-Line canopy and queuing system.

TransLink customers will notice westbound bus stops for the 9 and 99 B-Line will be relocated from June 15 to June 25 to accommodate this phase of the project.

Upgrades at Commercial-Broadway Station under TransLink’s Maintenance and Repair Program are designed to meet the needs of our growing region. They include an additional platform for Expo Line trains, a widened crossing over the Grandview Cut and a new pedestrian walkway over Broadway. Two new elevators and four escalators are also being added to improve accessibility and customer convenience.
