Metrotown SkyTrain Station

10.4 km•Metrotown, Maywood

One of the most important stations in the SkyTrain network. Great for getting to and from the…read moreMetropolis area, which includes Station Square and Crystal Mall. They've renovated the station in recent years to include more escalators, which drastically improves the pedestrian flow. However, the really not-so-good part is that they didn't reconnect the sky bridge that used to link the station with Metropolis. Heard it was some dispute between the City and the owners of Metropolis. Now everyone is forced to cross Central at street level, which makes life a lot more difficult. Knock 1 star off.

Located on the Expo line, Metrotown opened in 1985 and has been faithfully serving the Vancouver…read morepopulation ever since. There was a pretty good rebuild between 2015 and 2018 that improved capacity and the flow of passengers due to the shopping centers and multi-story living buildings that were added to the neighborhood. According to metrics, it is the second most busy terminal on the entire SkyTrain network. The station is handicapped accessible with lift and escalators. There is also a pedestrian bridge across the road that leads to the bus terminal and shopping. It is between Patterson (towards Waterfront) and Royal Oak (towards King George or Production Way-University). [Review 20899 overall - 75 in British Columbia - 1883 of 2023.]

Stadium-Chinatown Station

0.7 km•Downtown

One of the original Expo line stations. Great for accessing BC Place and Rogers Arena (stadiums),…read moreas well as Costco next door. Part of Chinatown is a short walk E of the station. A certain chunk of it may actually be closer to Main/Science World station, which is the next station E of this one. The station is originally built with 3 platforms, but currently only 2 are used. Apparently the 3rd platform was built mainly for a shuttle service for Expo '86. One thing that's nice is that there is now decent cell phone reception inside the tunnels going into downtown. Still remember a few years back (2010s and earlier) when the entire tunnel system was a giant dead spot. For wheelchair accessibility, there are a series of elevators and ramps available at the W (Beatty) and NE (Keefer) entrances, but not at the S (Expo) entrance. Oh yeah, this station becomes a complete war zone whenever there's a concert or hockey game at either stadium. Double whammy if both have an event on the same day. In these situations it's actually better and faster to walk to and board at an adjacent station.

Nearest station for expo line, this station is elevated compared to street level. One can use…read moretouch enabled payment methods, which makes it very convenient. But unlike other cities that uses touch payment for their mass transit, like NYC and London, where they optimize your cost, vancouver seems to charge an unusually high charge for visitors. It was $4.60 USD (after conversion) for travel in the same zone one-way per person. Our trip was less than one mile, and it cost more than an Uber ride if you have 2 people traveling together.
