Page "Canada Line" Paragraph 6

The line continues elevated across the North Arm Bridge over the North Arm of the Fraser River, leaving Vancouver and entering Richmond.

Just beyond Bridgeport Station ( 11. 1 km ), the line splits, with the Richmond branch heading south on elevated tracks along No. 3 Road and terminating at Richmond – Brighouse Station ( 14. 5 km ).

The airport branch turns west and crosses the Middle Arm Bridge over the Middle Arm of the Fraser River, connecting to stations on Sea Island and terminating at YVR – Airport Station ( 15. 0 km ).

Portions of the airport branch are at-grade in order to accommodate a future elevated taxiway for aircraft over the line.

Both branches narrow to a single track as they approach their respective terminus stations.

Just before the Bridgeport Station is the OMC ( Operations and Maintenance Centre ) facility which houses the trains when not in use.
