Is the Vancouver Suburb of Port Moody a TRULY a Hidden Gem with Water, Mountains, and... Beer?

PM is ridiculously small like NW is. However, since they are both in-between type little cities, they can be great hubs.

Port Moody and New Westminster

Port_Moody is very small in area at 25.85 km² (9.98 sq mi). New_Westminster is such a tini area at 15.62 km² (6.03 sq mi). PM only has around 40 thousand people & NW has around 90 thousand residents.

There has never been a proper transportation corridor between Port+Moody and Deep+Cove. Certainly no ferry between PM, DC & Downtown_Vancouver. NW is also a transportation joke of a city, because there should have been at least 2 other bridges. One to Richmond and another bridge to Surrey.

Of course there is no direct Airport_rail_link between NW & Richmond. Even an express Airport_bus_link would be an improvement. However, a 24 hour Airport-ferry_connection between Mission, Maple_Ridge, Pitt_Meadows, Port_Coquitlam, Fraser-Mills, NW and Richmond.

There is so much of a need for proper Intermodal_passenger_transport in BC.

The Metrotown-North Shore bus rapid transit route

https://www.nsnews.com/local-news/translink-asks-for-input-on-metrotown-north-shore-bus-rapid-transit-route-11124079

A Metrotown-North+Shore+Rapid+Transit+route should ultimately have a train as well as a bus line. That's because the SkyTrain won't be running 24 hours a day & BC lacks transportation redundancy.

There still should be a foot, bus & bike bridge between Port+Moody and Deep+Cove.
