The R6 Scott Rd is an express bus service with bus rapid transit elements in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Part of TransLink's RapidBus network, it travels along Scott Road and 72 Avenue in Surrey and connects Scott Road station, North Delta, and Newton.[1]

The route began service on January 2, 2024.[2]

## History[edit]

On June 28, 2018, the Mayors' Council and TransLink's board of directors approved the second phase of the 10-Year Vision. This phase included provisions for two new B-Line routes, one of which would connect Newton Exchange to the SkyTrain's Expo Line via Scott Road.[3]

During a presentation to Delta city council on November 9, 2020, TransLink stated that the route would be named the R6 Scott Rd RapidBus, and run from Newton Exchange to Scott Road station. This planned route would not directly stop at Scottsdale Exchange in order to shorten the travel time along the route.[4][5]

Construction on the route started in April 2023 to introduce bus priority lanes, queue jumps, and remove bus bays for congestion mitigation.[6][7]

## Route description[edit]

Starting at Scott Road station, the R6 travels south along Scott Road towards 72 Avenue, then continues east along 72 Avenue towards Newton Exchange.[7]
