FLASH – Is TransLink Buying ALR Land For OMC#5?

News flash!

It now seems that TransLink is going to purchase (if not already bought) Agriculture Land Reserve Land near the corner of the Pacific Highway and Fraser Highways.

This is probably going to be the new site of the Operations and Maintenance Centre #5.

The reason: ALR Land is $200 thousand an acre versus $6 million an acre for industrial land.

From my point of view, both TransLink and premier Eby have a “politcal death wish”, by blacktopping ALR land for SkyTrain!
