Transit Ridership Dips in Metro Vancouver

Published 4 days, 14 hours ago
Description

Transit ridership in Metro Vancouver dipped in 2025, primarily due to federal changes affecting non-permanent residents. Young adults, the biggest transit users, saw a three percent drop, while car usage increased by 1.5 percent. Buses and Expo/Millennium SkyTrain lines saw a decline, but Canada Line and SeaBus experienced growth. Areas like Vancouver, Burnaby, and Surrey lost riders, while Richmond and Maple Ridge gained. TransLink predicts a ridership rebound starting in 2028, with population growth and investments driving the increase.
