Vancouver is set to see a significant upgrade in its transit network with the Broadway Subway Project, a 5.7-kilometer extension of the Millennium Line from VCC-Clark Station to Broadway and Arbutus. More than just an infrastructure upgrade— this project is an economic driver that will reshape mobility, commerce, and urban development in one of Canada’s fastest-growing metropolitan areas. Executive Project Director Lauren Matthias underscores the project’s significance, telling Business Elite Canada, “The Broadway Subway Project will provide fast, frequent, and convenient SkyTrain service to B.C.’s second-largest jobs centre, health services, an emerging innovation and research hub, and growing residential communities.” With the new extension, a trip from VCC-Clark to Arbutus will take just 11 minutes, reducing commute times by nearly 30 minutes per day. The project aims to alleviate congestion along Broadway, one of the busiest transit corridors in North America, where overcrowded buses often struggle to meet demand. 71 JUN 2025 | BUSINESS ELITE CANADA
