Well, it says "they'll build a temporary station nearby". I think it's pretty nuts that they can build a second station, then close the first one, rebuild it, then demolish the replacement all in 15 months for less than it takes to fix the first one.
So, we have our choice on what to make people bitch about: "I can't believe they're making us walk an extra block to get to metrotown--and for more than a year!" or "Can you believe that this construction is taking more than two years to finish? It must be all the unions!"
My big concern is what they're going to do with the Canada line. Most of the stations are at capacity already during rush hour if I remember correctly. And yet Vancouver is building up more along the lines, and the stations have no upgrade capacity. That's gonna be a whole 'nother gong show a decade from now.
