The Canadian government will invest CA$94.7 million in new maintenance facilities to support TransLink's SkyTrain fleet.
As TransLink continues to expand its SkyTrain fleet, additional facilities are needed to safely operate and maintain the fleet, Infrastructure Canada officials said in a press release. The new facilities will be able to accommodate operations and maintenance requirements for approximately 145 SkyTrain cars.
TransLink will gain inspection and cleaning facilities with two bays and one wash track; maintenance shops with bays for vehicles and rail equipment; upper office space and indoor storage areas; and administrative and security spaces for maintenance staff.
TransLink, which serves metro Vancouver, is contributing over CA$142 million to the project.
