Movement: Metro Vancouver Transit Riders

TransLink’s new investment plan proposes to upgrade the 388 to all-day weekday service, which is a positive step. However, we’ve heard from some riders that TransLink can do better and extend the service to weekends as well.

Purple page with bus graphic, pink and green flowers, a Movement logo, and a right arrow. Text says "do you ride the 388? tell us what you use it for".

Map of 388 bus route on a purple background, with a Movement logo, graphic of transit route, green and pink flowers and the following text: "The 388 is currently the only bus route along 88th Avenue in Surrey and is really the only serious east-west route between 104th and 64th, connecting 22nd Street Station and Carvolth Exchange. Right now, it runs only during peak hours on weekdays, meaning there is no transit option along this corridor during off-peak hours or on weekends."

Text is as follows: "why are we asking this? Translink is improving this route with all-day service on weekdays. We want to know if more service/ improvements are needed. Help us learn more! Tell us how and when you use the 388, by filling out a short survey!"

Do you ride the 388?

We want to learn more about how you use this bus, and if you would like to see any improvements. As one of the main east-to-west connections in Surrey, we think the 388 deserves service beyond peak hours on weekdays.

This. Is. Huge.

It appears that the judge saved the bike lanes because they found that:
-removing the bike lanes would reduce the safety of cyclists, going against the charter of rights and freedoms
-removing the bike lanes would worsen congestion, going against the removal's stated purpose

Vancouver bus improvements are at risk. Marpole is about to get better transit. — so why is it at risk?

Transit Riders In Marpole Need Reliable Transit "If this is your fastest way and your fastest way still takes double, triple, the amount of time it takes to drive, you are just going to drive, which means even more traffic." Chris, Movement Volunteer “Some people are late for work, and medical appointments because of delays.” “When the weather’s bad it means a lot” “when its cold out or its raining on you” “you may not have enough shelter” Don, Marpole Resident

Transit reliability improvements are at risk. Unfortunately, some people think that a few parked cars are more important than a reliable transportation network. There are a few powerful voices fighting against the needs of transit riders. Will you join us and sign a letter to council?
