TransLink will be reopening a new bus loop at the New Westminster SkyTrain station this spring.

TransLink spokesperson Drew Snider said the bus loop at The Plaza at New Westminster station development is set to be operational on April 23, as part of normal service changes that take place each spring.

The former bus exchange at the New Westminster SkyTrain station was closed in 2009 to allow for construction of the Plaza 88 development. Bus stops at the New Westminster SkyTrain station were relocated to nearby streets, including Alexander Street, so construction could proceed at the residential and commercial development that's been built on a site bounded by Columbia and Carnarvon streets and 10th and Eighth streets.
