Bothered by the train? The Burrard Inlet Line Working Group is focused on what can be done to minimize the impact of rail traffic through our neighborhood.
This post focuses on the history of colonial settlement of Vancouver, however we respectfully acknowledge that Vancouver is part of the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Squamish, Musqueam, and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations.
What's with all those the colourful, Lego-like containers that have been chugging through Strathcona on the Burrard Inlet Line since the beginning of 2017?

Dear Madames/Sirs:
RE: Noise complaint by the Strathcona Residents Association re: Burrard Inlet Rail Line
If you ride the #22 bus, you've probably noticed how unreliable it's been since January 2017. Several times a day, our dear #22 is held up by trains that block Venables Street.
If a train is stopped or shunting for more than 5 minutes at a time, and is blocking a road that someone is waiting to cross, it is against federal regulations and you can report it.

Update: We ended mediation on August 28, as no solution was in sight.
