Weather conditions causing problems for TransLink Friday (Globalnews.ca)

The snow plan consists of many extra measures to ensure 'all transit services are prepared for potential snowfall.'

“Extra staff have been working overnight and will work throughout the day today to keep transit moving for customers as best as possible.” “Travel conditions will be challenging due to heavy snow, ice pellets, freezing rain, and heavy rain on snow or ice.” For those who have to travel, customers should expect delays and build in extra travel time,” TransLink officials said. TransLink is re-routing buses to try and fill the gaps in SkyTrain service. The Millennium Line continued to experience significant delays, with no service currently between Lougheed and Burquitlam stations, TransLink said. Earlier in the afternoon, the entire line was being held while TransLink ran de-icing trains to clear the tracks.
