It's meant to help make transportation in Vancouver more sustainable
Anyone in the Metro Vancouver region who uses the Scrap-It program can get $800 towards transit, spread out over 16 months .
"Individuals who scrap their vehicles can now choose to receive a stored value Compass card worth $50 monthly for 16 months," TransLink states in a press release."The vehicle scrappage program is designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lower exhaust pollutants across the province by offering multi-modal rebates to those who scrap their vehicle, including transit, carshare, e-bike rebates, and more," notes the transit agency.
The incentive is being added to a list people can choose when using the Scrap-It program, including $500 credits towards car share programs like Evo, $750 towards an e-bike, or $300 cash. Other TransLink passes are already part of the program.
