What the Vancouver 2030 Olympics venue plan could look like

Unfortunately, the SkyTrain was never designed to have 500ft or 152.5m long stations like the Montreal Metro and the TTC Subway have. Plus, Greater Vancouver has made it very difficult to have wide roadways like Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa & QC. So, aside from the sports related infrastructure, the overall transportation infrastructure remains stunted & thwarted, compared to real cities that are allowed to think big.

Any proper big thinking city & metropolitan region still has to have some wide roads & long trains.
