BROADWAY SUBWAY EXTENSION
2026 Top100 Projects Rank: 33 Value: $2.8 billion
BC MINISTRY OF TRANSPORTATION AND TRANSIT
DYNAMIC TESTING is underway on the Broadway Subway
Project, marking the 昀椀rst time SkyTrain vehicles are
operating on the new extension and advancing progress toward a fall 2027 public opening.
The Broadway Subway Project is a major
investment in Metro Vancouver’s rapid-transit
network, extending the Millennium Line west
from VCC-Clark Station to Arbutus Street. Once
complete, the extension will provide fast, reliable
transit service through one of the region’s busiest
corridors, improving access to jobs, education and
services, while reducing congestion and supporting
sustainable growth across the region.
According to the province, dynamic testing allows
crews to con昀椀rm that the trains, tracks, signals and
communications systems are all working together
safely. Di昀昀erent tests will be conducted to ensure that
trains have safe clearance, are correctly positioned and
that signals are working properly. Testing will also examine how multiple trains operate on the tracks at the
same time. Initial testing uses driver-operated trains
before transitioning to automatic train control.
