While the North Shore is not yet served by SkyTrain, transit-oriented development is gaining momentum through a growing network of high-frequency bus corridors and rapid transit investments. The SeaBus connects Lonsdale Quay to Downtown Vancouver in 12 minutes, anchoring a dense, walkable neighbourhood in Lower Lonsdale. The R2 Marine Drive RapidBus route supports transit-focused development along a key east-west corridor, linking major hubs such as Park Royal, Lonsdale Quay, and Phibbs Exchange.

Transit Investment Supports More Compact Growth

While the North Shore is not yet served by SkyTrain, transit-oriented development is gaining momentum through a growing network of high-frequency bus corridors and rapid transit investments.

The future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line between Metrotown and the North Shore, identified as a regional priority, will further strengthen cross-Burrard Inlet connectivity and catalyze new growth in transit-accessible areas. Municipal plans across West Vancouver and the City and District of North Vancouver, continue to encourage higher-density housing, mixed-use projects, and public realm improvements in areas well-served by transit. With new infrastructure on the horizon, the North Shore is embracing a more compact, connected future.
