Transportation is one of TEAM for a Livable Vancouver's ten positions. The party says Vancouver is one of the most congested cities in North America and that past councils treated private cars as a problem. It wants a system that works for people who drive, take transit, cycle or walk. TEAM's longer page sorts its actions under headings, and each has its own chapter here: transit, cycling, walking and rolling, and personal and commercial vehicles. On transit, TEAM would work with TransLink to restore cut bus routes, electrify buses, add small community routes and put every resident within a 5-minute walk of a stop. On cycling, it would build low-traffic cross-town routes and review the Granville Bridge Connector and the Stanley Park and Beach Avenue bike lanes. It would repair and widen sidewalks, synchronize traffic lights, restore parking minimums for new buildings, and refuse road pricing and city-wide parking permits. The city owns and designs its streets, bike lanes, sidewalks and parking rules, so Council can act on those items. Buses, SkyTrain and SeaBus are run by TransLink, a regional body the city does not control, so every transit promise depends on TransLink agreeing. **4**Chapters **37**Commitments **9**Need another government or a regional body 4 CHAPTERS ## Every chapter in Transportation [

It would also build safe, low-traffic cross-town routes (TEAM Transportation page).
How would TEAM improve buses in Vancouver? TEAM says it would work with TransLink to restore cut neighbourhood and express routes, electrify the fleet, add small community routes, stop removing bus stops and put every resident within a 5-minute walk of a stop (TEAM Transportation page).
Who controls transportation in Vancouver? The city owns and designs its streets, bike lanes, sidewalks and parking rules, so Council can act on those. Buses, SkyTrain and SeaBus are run by TransLink, a regional body the city does not control (TEAM Transportation page).
