No not as direct as straight up Burrard street, but would also allow connecting much of the West End and Coal Harbour to the rapid transit network.


That's exactly something I've dreamed for ages!! (do you know how to draw that? I'd love to see a render)

In fact, I'd like to add that IMO, although the upcoming Evergreen Line, and the prospective extension of the M Line to UBC, both represent the culmination and completion of the RRT system in Vancouver for the foreseeable future, this line mentioned above could, and should, be added to the "completion" of the Vancouver RRT system. It could be called anything but something like the Transbay like would convey its direction, and its east-west reach across town
