Editing Millennium Line (section)

===Early proposals===
When the Expo Line was opened in 1985, an extension to [[Lougheed Town Centre|Lougheed Mall]] in east [[Burnaby]] was proposed. The most likely junction point for the spur to Lougheed Mall would have been from [[Royal Oak station (SkyTrain)|Royal Oak station]], up Edmonds Street to Lougheed Mall, although early SkyTrain route maps also suggested an extension northeast from [[New Westminster]].<ref>{{cite web |first=Michael |last=Charles |url=https://orangeraisin.wordpress.com/2019/05/14/skytrain-edmonds-cariboo-extension/ |title=A SkyTrain historical footnote: The Edmonds-Cariboo extension |website=orangeraisin.wordpress.com |date=May 14, 2019 |access-date=July 15, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190715034326/https://orangeraisin.wordpress.com/2019/05/14/skytrain-edmonds-cariboo-extension/ |archive-date=July 15, 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite report |title=Skytrain Extension To Coquitlam Transit Planning Study Summary Report |date=September 25, 1986 |publisher=BC Transit SkyTrain Project}}</ref> Neither plan was realized, although the extension of Expo Line tracks to [[Columbia station (SkyTrain)|Columbia Station]] in 1989 and the completion of the [[Skybridge (TransLink)|SkyBridge]] to [[Surrey, British Columbia|Surrey]] in 1990 resulted in a short spur east of Columbia station, which was later incorporated into the new Millennium Line.
