TransLink announced that there is no service on the Expo Line between Columbia Station and Lougheed station as of 8:30 am on Monday, February 11.
The transit authority notes that riders will have to use a shuttle train between the two SkyTrain stations, and therefore will need to allow for additional time during their commute.

SkyTrain Stations
TransLink notes that there are delays on both the Expo and Millennium SkyTrain Lines, which they attribute to the frigid weather. They also add that many trains are being driven manually in particular areas. As a result, riders are warned that they should allow additional time for travel.
