The easiest way from South Granville to Fairview is a bus along Granville Street or Broadway, and the two neighbourhoods are close enough that a short ride is all it takes. Exact stops depend on where you are going in Fairview, so use the TransLink trip planner for your addresses.
Buses on Granville and Broadway
Routes 10 and 14 both use Granville Street. The 10 is a Granville and Hastings trolleybus route. The 14 runs from downtown along Hastings and Granville, then onto Broadway toward UBC, which takes it straight through Fairview. The 99 B-Line also runs along Broadway, with stops at Granville and at Cambie, where it meets the Canada Line.
The 99 B-Line is an express with a limited number of stops, and TransLink describes weekday peak waits of roughly 1.5 to 3 minutes. For a short hop a local route may be as good, because the express skips stops. Check the planner for the next departure.
Canada Line at Broadway-City Hall
Broadway-City Hall is a Canada Line station in Fairview, and the Canada Line is part of the SkyTrain network. One way to reach it is to take a Broadway bus east to Cambie and walk or ride a short distance. The planner shows the best way to combine buses and the train for your destination.
Driving and parking in Fairview
Fairview is on the south shore of False Creek, and the Granville Street Bridge links the two areas. A map app gives current directions and shows closures. Street parking in the area is metered in many places, so read the signs for hours and time limits before you leave the car. Residential blocks often have permit rules, and fines are easy to avoid if you check.
Parkades and lots near the main streets are more reliable for a longer visit, though they cost more. Ask the venue or clinic you are visiting what is nearby.
For a quick ride without parking, the Vancouver taxi page lists local cab companies, and the Uber estimate calculator gives a rough fare for a trip this short.
