Surrey Forward explains position on expanding the Surrey Transit Network

Surrey needs better transit. Surrey Forward will commit to a complete transit system that connects all of Surrey’s major population and commerce areas.

"Fleetwood, Newton, Panorama and South Surrey all need a SkyTrain link to connect to the transit system in the lower mainland," says Jinny Sims, Mayoral candidate for Surrey Forward. "Transit makes it easier to build sustainable and affordable housing while enabling a network to ensure people can get to work, shopping, recreation and places of worship."

"Without this vital link, it will be impossible to hold the line on transportation costs for Surrey families. Already, too much time and money are spent on gas, parking and cars. By building a better transit network, we can create a stronger Surrey."

"It is time that Surrey got its fair share of transit investment. This investment will ensure the best growth and affordability strategy for Surrey."
