It could be SkyTrain on or under a new bridge. It could be dedicated BRT lanes. What it won't be is a tunnel and "there’s not yet a timeline for the project" so it's likely to be a while. But before anything to Maple Ridge.
IIRC there's about 25-ish years left for the IWMB, so TransLink may very well decide to just let it stay there until then and build a separate SkyBridge for the train.
