On January 14, 2008, the Government of British Columbia announced a commitment to the expansion of the Millennium Line to the [[University of British Columbia]] (UBC) by 2020 as part of a $14-billion transit spending package to address [[global warming]]. It was not clear what route the new line would take, but it was hinted that there would be less use of [[Tunnel#Cut-and-cover|cut-and-cover tunnelling]] to minimize disruption to businesses along Broadway and avoid [[Canada Line#Impact on local businesses|the same problems]] seen during the Canada Line construction along [[Cambie Street]].<ref>{{cite news |first=Vaughn |last=Palmer |title=Less than meets the eye, and light on details |url=http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/story.html?id=6cb8fa40-30d1-4437-aa0f-6be3080a6d95&p=2 |work=[[Vancouver Sun]] |publisher=[[CanWest Global Communications|CanWest MediaWorks Publications]] |date=January 15, 2008 |access-date=January 15, 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103191941/http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/story.html?id=6cb8fa40-30d1-4437-aa0f-6be3080a6d95&p=2 |archive-date=November 3, 2012}}</ref> This expansion failed to materialize. 

On February 15, 2019, the TransLink Mayors' Council again approved an extension of the line to the UBC campus, although funding for this continuation past Arbutus Street had not yet been secured.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/skytrain-extension-ubc-1.5021463|title=Metro Vancouver mayors vote yes on SkyTrain extension to UBC | date=February 15, 2019 |work=CBC News |access-date=February 16, 2019}}</ref> In 2022, TransLink unveiled a proposed route for the extension: the line would continue west under Broadway, with stations at Macdonald and Alma Streets. It would then deviate slightly north to a station serving the redevelopment at the [[West Point Grey#Jericho Lands|Jericho Lands]]. In the [[University Endowment Lands]], the line would either take an elevated route following University Boulevard, or a tunnelled route underneath the [[University Golf Club]], to get to UBC at a station under the University Boulevard bus loop.<ref>{{Cite news |last=McDonald |first=Elizabeth |date=May 2, 2022 |title=TransLink presents two potential routes for SkyTrain to UBC project |work=[[The Ubyssey]] |url=https://www.ubyssey.ca/news/translink-presents-two-potential-routes-for-skytrain-to-ubc-project/ |access-date=August 21, 2022}}</ref> The station locations at Macdonald Street, Alma Street, and the Jericho Lands were approved by the Vancouver City Council in March 2022.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Britten |first=Liam |date=March 30, 2022 |title=Vancouver council picks spots for 3 stations on proposed SkyTrain extension to UBC |work=[[CBC News]] |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/ubc-skytrain-stations-1.6403412 |access-date=August 21, 2022}}</ref>
