Richmond Projects

Richmond is home to the Vancouver International Airport (YVR) and is situated only 25 minutes from both downtown Vancouver and the USA/Canada border. Richmond has the country's largest Asian-Canadian population by percentage. SkyTrain's Canada Line connects Richmond with Vancouver. The Canada Line reaches Vancouver's neighbourhoods of downtown, Yaletown-False Creek, Mount Pleasant, and South Vancouver. For the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, the City of Richmond constructed an 8,000-seat speed-skating oval near the No. 2 Road Bridge, just across the Fraser River from Vancouver International Airport.
