Saturday October 4, 2008. Doors open at 9:30, start at 10:00 a.m., going to 3:00 p.m. or as needed

Price:
Free. And lunch will be provided.

Where?
SFU Surrey campus, Room 5240, 13450 102 Ave. Surrey, walking distance from Surrey Central SkyTrain Station. (location on Google Maps)

To get to the room, follow the main SFU campus stairs to the Mezzanine. Take the elevator to the 5th floor and head South down the hall to Room 5240 on the West side of the hall. Look for signage.

Who’s coming?
Everyone interested in, or affected by urban and transit issues is welcome! We hope to attract transit users and non-users, transit bloggers, “transit geeks”, students, NGOs, government, business, academics and researchers; TransLink and SkyTrain staff.

Why this topic?
Responding to increased public and media focus on security issues at SkyTrain stations, TransLink and SkyTrain are consulting the public over 2008-early 2009 to…

Explore station security issues and recent initiatives to improve security, and
elicit stakeholder comments on issues and solutions.
Before holding formal stakeholder meetings, TransLink is supporting the operation of this blog on SkyTrain security, which feeds in to the “unconference” on October 4. We are looking forward to starting a dialogue on this topic by inviting grassroots input using this new and innovative format.
