A mysterious and rather rancid odour is making waiting for the train particularly unpleasant at downtown Vancouver SkyTrain stations.

In response to increased complaints of foul odors at SkyTrain stations in the Metro Vancouver area, a formal air quality study was conducted under the Environmental Protection Act (EPA) by the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change of Canada. This study took place in May 2024 and involved air sampling across three major routes: Waterfront Station to King George Station, Waterfront Station to Braid Station, and Waterfront Station to Production Way-University Station. Air probes were systematically collected and analyzed to determine the levels of various compounds. The focus was detecting fat-soluble oils and inorganic salts, specifically sodium, chloride, and potassium, indicating human perspiration. The study revealed significantly elevated levels of these compounds along the Waterfront Station to King George Station route. The concentrations of fat-soluble oils and the specified salts were 374% higher on this route than on the other routes tested.

Sewage pipes leaking. Number 20 bus South bound goes through Hastings, picks up people that need to sleep and some who need a place to sit while their drugs work. Boarded the bus a few times to find people sleeping, leaving biohazards on the seats and some on the verge of overdosing. Not complaining just sharing what I have observed. Translink needs to change the bus route!!

All Trudeau had to do was say some kind of wishy washy things like “womens issues are everyone issues” and then get applause. Meanwhile womens issues have only gotten worse since then. Many women since then are now reaching middle age and still unmarried and growing very unhappy. The culture failed them. Lol

Between Burrard Station and Waterfront Station, there is a section underground beside the tracks that has graffiti and trash littered. It looks like nobody has cleaned up the section for years. For some reason, I assume it was left over from the 2011 Canucks riot. When commuting from Waterfront station to Burrard, look out on the right side facing the front of the train and you will see the mess.

If you've lived in Vancouver in the 90's you've probably seen that lady walking around Kingsway and Victoria like everyday trying to enter businesses but people had to hold their door to keep her from going in.

@@walkman6150 Wow, that's some long winded excuse for xenophobic nonsense. "Acknowledge who is causing it" is such a disgusting statement my nose is recoiling right through the laptop screen. Who is causing it is you and me. Because we are distracted by online hate BS written for us by algorithms who care not what is written, just that it gets clicks. So then we don't hold the government to account in a reasonable way. Instead of getting the decisions made that will fund proper train cleaning, proper maintenance, the bureaucrats can point to xenophobic comments like yours and dismiss the whole thing as just "normal" and not actually fix the problem. The hateful comments make the workers depressed so the really excellent workers quit and only the type who does the bare minimum sticks around. Having a nice city and train system takes real work.

There have never been available washrooms for the public, only for Transit Personnel. It is inhumane and pathetic. I commuted for 18 years from Vancouver to Surrey and even the pit stops closed their doors to any public usage. I don't blame them. It's a horrible situation.

Toronto's SRT had a bad smell at Midland Station. It was due to the cardboard recycling plant and Atlantic Packaging. It was pure farts lol

That stench is particularly bad in Burrard but it's not unique to the SkyTrain - exact same smell in one particular station in Hong Kong apparently caused by an old leaky sewer in the area which seeps through the micro cracks of the rock...

See, when the stations are designed as utilitarian herding docks for consumers, people are not as embarrased to offend against them. Go to the Moscow Metro...not perfect but the ambience is WAY better.

Most of the stations smell like pee. While trains and busses smell like urine and poop especially the chairs. Plus body odor.

As bad as it is, at least it isn't the "funk" that permeates the Montreal Metro.... That smell tracks onto their busses in the winter too. It even survived a cross- country trip when their busses were shipped to Victoria to cover the busses loaned to Translink for the 2010 Olympics.

The last time I took the subway in Montreal was in the early 90’s until I got my first car. I remember it sometimes smelled of rotten eggs. I’ll bet that was more pleasant than what it smells like now, with all the homeless people living down there.

That's not true that this smell has only been there for a couple of months. It's been there for years in the underground portions of the Expo Line, and the trains keep smelling all the way to Main Station or even Commercial. To those who say it's the smell of homeless people, no it's not. Many homeless people smell strongly, but this is an entirely different smell. Walking around the Broadway digging operations for the Skytrain line extension, I occasionally get whiffs of that same smell, a bit like sewers on a hot day. If there aren't leaking sewer lines down there, maybe it's the ground itself that smells like that? Is it possible that the deeper soil has a high concentration of sulfur or something alike?

Rotten eggs is Rotten eggs which is either pepsin added to natural gas, something naturally decomposing, or subterranean ie: volcanic sulfides in rock. Also given it is a certain time of the day it could be prevailing winds from the Shore to Ship Sulphur exports on the North Shore. JMO
