Changes to a Vancouver bus route could have expected consequences
About this episode
Translink is planning to make changes to bus stops along the Hastings corridor, which will affect bus riders in the Downtown Eastside. Translink is looking to remove seven stops in the neighbourhood and replace them with five others in more spaced out locations. UGM spokesperson Nick Wells says the changes could further marginalize their clientele and Unifor Western Regional Director Gavin McGarrigle says he hopes the changes will make it safer for transit operators on various Hastings bus routes.
