After almost three years of construction, the expansion of the Brentwood Town Centre SkyTrain station in Vancouver, Canada, is fully complete, Daily Hive reports. Beginning in April 2022, the entire upgrade project amassed a total cost of CAD32 million (US$22 million), which was covered by the federal government and TransLink. The project included the addition of a new elevator between the street and mezzanine levels, as well as two new down escalators from the platforms to the mezzanine level. Installed near the east end of the platforms, these escalators add capacity, and along with a 6,000-ft2 mezzanine expansion, redistributing passengers to a wider area of the station. The new escalators and expanded fare gates were created to reduce key chokepoints of the station, improving passenger flow for existing ridership and better enabling future ridership growth. The station fully reopened to passengers on March 24.
