On the way (unless there are significant changes as a result of a poor
choice at the ballot box).  The service will tentatively start on or about
Labor Day with artic's travelling Broadway from Lougheed Mall to
Granville.  And LRT is on track for implementation as well.

For good info, see the Allardice link on the ICTU homepage at

It's a very good study.  You can also request a copy of the BC Transit Ten
Year Plan by selecting the appropriate link on the page as well.
