06 April 2009
InTransitBC is inviting the public for a sneak peek inside Lansdowne Station on Thursday, April 9, 2009, between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. This is the first of four public open houses to view the inside of Canada Line stations
and trains, and to learn more about how public feedback was used throughout the design and construction stages of
the project.
The remaining open houses in Vancouver and Sea Island will likely to be held in the summer, and more information will be available once the details are confirmed.
Lansdowne Station is located on No. 3 Road at Lansdowne Road in Richmond. Access for persons with disabilities will be provided in the station, and parking for the disabled will be available at the southeast side of the station. General parking for this event is also located at the southeast side of the station provided by Lansdowne Centre.
InTransitBC will also launch its new website at the open house, where the public can experience the Canada Line’s
“Virtual Ride” on the home page. The InTransitBC website will provide the public with information about the Canada
Line, and links to schedules and fares. Some project partners, including the City of Richmond and Translink, will be onsite and available to answer questions.
If you are unable to attend the open house but would like to sign up to receive InTransitBC information, please visit us online at www.intransitbc.ca.
