So as per the discussion here, I think there is general agreement this map needs to be updated so it doesn't show that Granville station (TransLink) and Vancouver City Centre station are together an interchange station. There is no direct connection between them (the connection through the mall is not always available and is reliant on a third party) and showing them as having such is confusing for riders.

Fantastic! I'm sure we could all oscillate for days on whether the separate green/yellow overlay segment is confusing, how to best represent the non-Skytrain connection (B-Lines, West Coast Express) without sowing confusion or adding clutter, and the relative merits of n- or m-dashes. But for now I'm just glad this functionally-accurate map is there! 2601:182:CE00:C:291F:1370:C536:8F27 ( talk) 16:25, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
It would be really great if this map (which is awesome, btw) included the full station names so as not to be confusing to casual viewers who are not Metro Vancouver transit experts. Having Broadway–City Hall station referred to as "City Hall" when Commercial–Broadway station is referred to as "Broadway" is highly problematic; it's unlikely anyone who is heading to Cambie and Broadway on the Canada Line refers to it as "going to City Hall" (unless they are actually going to City Hall itself). Similarly, many of the shortened names do not include pertinent info found in the full name: Richmond–Brighouse, Oakridge–41st Avenue, Vancouver City Centre, Yaletown-Roundhouse, etc. Joeyconnick ( talk) 11:42 am, Today (UTC−8)
