The Translink Mayor’s Council is getting close to narrowing down transit funding options.
Langley City Mayor and Vice-Chair of the Mayor’s Council, Peter Fassbender, says there are a variety of funding options on the table for discussion, “We’re looking at things like some form of traffic demand management, congestion pricing, time of day, distance space, graduated vehicle fee.”
The Mayor’s Council is trying to move away from higher property taxes and the gas tax for pay for transit.
Mayors have given the Province until the end of February to work with them on a transit funding solution.
