RICHMOND - New Canada Line security measures won't be installed in time for the line's completion.

TransLink officials said a turnstile security system and smart-card payments are still being studied.

"It's still very much in the [TransLink] board's hands," said TransLink spokesman Drew Snider. "They're starting to put together a working plan to see what else there is to study about it. So no, it wouldn't be ready [in time] for the Canada Line," which is to open late next year.
