Here's something I only learned recently - Vancouver is building a huge expansion of their SkyTrain system in time for the Winter Olympics in 2010. The green Evergreen line and red Canada line are under contruction. The Canada line will link downtown with the airport. Do ya hear that Calgary transportation planners? Their light rail will connect to the airport! What a concept, huh?
No monthly fees, no equipment to install

What a novel idea...being able to use public transit to get to the airport. We're still waiting for that to happen in Toronto too.
You would not believe the politics involed with this line to the airport. The most amusing and shocking was when a lone resident along Arbutus said that it they would never allow the building of the skytrain along their street because they were the elite in Vancouvers society.
Excited to see this happen as 3/4 of that new line will be underground.
