Rush hour commuters face delays on SkyTrain due to medical emergency

A medical emergency at the Burrard Street SkyTrain station led to a slowdown on the Expo and Millennium lines during Tuesday’s rush hour.

Trains ran, but only on a single track, and less frequently than usual. Westbound trains stopped at Stadium station.

TransLink established a bus bridge and shuttle train on a single line between the Waterfront and Stadium stations. Despite their efforts, commuters had to deal with long lineups and crowded trains.

TransLink said the Expo Line returned to regular service around 7:45 p.m.
