这个城市，即将全城覆盖免费WiFi网络
在手机上听音乐，视频聊天或观看YouTube视频收取数据费用的日子很快就要在温哥华消失了，因为TransLink宣布将为大温哥华地区推出免费Wi-Fi。通过与Shaw Communications Inc.的合作，TransLink将能够在2020年开始在公共汽车、SkyTrain或SeaBus上提供Wi-Fi的连接。
“我们每天有50万人乘坐我们的交通系统，当我们询问他们想要在运输途中看到什么时，Wi-Fi是最常见的建议之一”TransLink首席执行官Kevin Desmond在接受记者采访时说。
“我们很自豪能成为加拿大第一家提供这种免费Wi-Fi服务的运输机构，我们正在努力为客户或纳税人免费提供上网服务。”
TransLink和Shaw承诺新服务不会使客户付出任何额外费用，Shaw Communications Inc.将安装和运营Wi-Fi网络，使用者不需要是Shaw的客户也可以使用Wi-Fi网络。
“为了实现无缝连接，每天都有成千上万的人使用网络来享受生活并与朋友、家人和同事联系”Shaw Communications的Katherine Emberly说道。
“无论是通过短信，电子邮件还是社交媒体，这些连接都是我们业务的核心，而Wi-Fi系统将使我们能够让大温哥华地区的更多乘客在他们路途中保持网络。”
从SkyTrain和公共汽车开始，该系统将于明年设计，试验将于2019年进行。Wi-Fi网络将于2020年上市。到2025年，将覆盖整个TransLink运输网络。
