West Coast Express (WCE) Expansion Survey The West Coast Express (WCE) commuter train started operation on Nov 1, 1995. Since that date, not much has changed. While the population of Tri-Cities has grown from 170,000 in 1996 to 243,658 in 2021 with a projected population of 400,000 in 2050 and the combined population of Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley is now nearly three million people, the WCE continues to be a unidirectional commuter service running Monday to Friday in rush hour only. The rapidly expanding population of communities served by the WCE deserves a much needed and long overdue expansion. The WCE Expansion Association (www.wceea.ca) would like to invite you to take a few minutes to complete this survey to help us push forward the WCE expansion.
