Transit & Transportation

Transit funding platforms

Here's what the 2024 BC election parties are promising.
We don't have any BC NDP policies on Transit funding.

BC Conservatives

  • Fully fund TransLink for two years, while auditing and reforming their financial model
    1. "Fully fund TransLink for two years to maintain uninterrupted, reliable service. Commuters shouldn’t need to worry about whether they can get to work or school. We will ensure full funding for transit as the financial model is audited.
    2. Audit and reform TransLink's financial model to ensure the long-term availability of funding that not just maintains service, but fuels expansion for the future."

BC Greens

  • Establish an all-party Parliamentary Committee to determine sustainable transport funding

    "We will establish an all-party Parliamentary Committee for sustainable transport funding.

    The Committee will gather expert opinions to create a non-partisan mechanism for funding transport infrastructure and operations, ensuring a comprehensive network for trains, ferries, buses, bikes, trucks, and cars."

  • Require government to spend as much on public transit, walking, and cycling as highway infrastructure and operations

    "We will require the Government to spend at least as much on public transit, walking, and cycling as on highway infrastructure and operations.

    Reduce the subsidy that car drivers receive to promote equitable transportation funding."
