(Burnaby, BC) Translink unveiled the newest addition to its fleet at a press conference yesterday. The new “Mini Cooper Shuttle” will replace the Community Shuttles that presently connects commuters to the Canada Line.
“Our strategy is to reduce the number of commuters trying to connect with the Canada Line” said a Translink spokesperson. “Since it is already nearing capacity in the year it’s been open,”
The new vehicles can seat 4 comfortably (including the driver) with room for two more if need be between and across the laps of the passengers in the back seat.
The new shuttles will not adhere to any specific schedule and will continue to run at break-neck speeds on city streets and come to bone-jarring stops. “There will be no change to the quality of service the Community Shuttles,” assured the spokesperson. “The rider won’t even notice the difference.”
