== Terminals == [[File:Lonsdale Quay SeaBus Terminal (North Vancouver).jpg|thumb|Entrance to the Charles A. Spratt SeaBus Terminal at Lonsdale Quay]] The SeaBus stops on the Vancouver side at [[Waterfront Station (Vancouver)|Waterfront Station]], near the [[Vancouver Convention Centre]] and the cruise ship terminal at [[Canada Place]]. A skywalk connects the SeaBus terminal to the main station building, where passengers can transfer to the [[West Coast Express]] and two lines of the SkyTrain system ([[Expo Line (TransLink)|Expo Line]] and [[Canada Line]]). In 2018, a seismic and accessibility upgrade of the Waterfront terminal began, which included escalator replacements and the construction of a new staircase to improve foot traffic flow.<ref name="2017ridership" /> In North Vancouver, the SeaBus stops at the purpose-built [[Lonsdale Quay (TransLink)|Lonsdale Quay]], which features an adjacent bus loop; together they form a major transit hub for Vancouver's [[North Shore (Greater Vancouver)|North Shore]] municipalities. In addition to serving commuters, Lonsdale Quay has become an important tourist destination, with a hotel and public market. In 1989, the North Vancouver terminal was designated the "Charles A. Spratt SeaBus Terminal", in honour of Charles Spratt, Project Manager of the SeaBus project from conception to launch, and Marine Manager of the system until his retirement in 1988.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.theprogress.com/community/149093545.html|title=Nancy Spratt: Horsing around|date=April 27, 2012|publisher=Chilliwack Progress|author=Ana Macedo|access-date=May 17, 2012}}</ref> Each terminal consists of two docks surrounded by an E-shaped structure: passengers board from the central waiting hall, which is separated into two waiting areas (each serving one dock) by partitions and turnstiles, and disembark onto a side platform (a [[Spanish solution]]).
