Hey Translink (and Metrotown mall)! How about you sort out the pedestrian connection between Metrotown and Metrotown Station first? What we have now is dangerous, stupid and looks post-apocalyptic...

This also involves the City of Burnaby. People have been yelling at those three for years about how dangerous the street-level pedestrian crossings are, and it's only a matter of time until we get a fatality there. And yet, no progress has been made on the elevated crossing.

Didn't someone get hit by a bus?

Yes, in January: https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2025/01/02/burnaby-metrotown-pedestrian-hit-by-bus/

They were injured, but not a fatality.

Translink is not the one dropping the ball here
