Bringing form to Bus Rapid Transit in Metro Vancouver
Access Planning has been a core partner from the outset. We led the development of the BRT Action Plan, defining what BRT means for Metro Vancouver and creating a framework to evaluate and prioritize corridors. This work directly informed the selection of the first three corridors now advancing into detailed planning and design.
As the program has progressed, we’ve taken on a strategic advisory role—helping TransLink establish governance structures, decision-making processes, and cross-functional coordination to manage a complex, multi-corridor program. Our expertise ensures alignment and accountability across teams and phases of work. We also serve as embedded project managers on select corridors, overseeing early planning and 10% design. We help refine objectives, guide technical work, and support municipal engagement. Our role brings strategic structure to initiatives often viewed as purely technical—ensuring each project is grounded in clear goals and positioned for long-term success.
This work showcases Access Planning’s ability to guide major initiatives from concept to execution, bringing together strategy, structure, and delivery to help our clients realize high-impact, region-shaping investments.
