Why is Vancouver's evening peak peakier than the morning peak?

Permalink | 28/10/09 | Categories: Railways, Statistics, State of the ART | by: A Sharp English (UK)

Apparently on the Canada Line automated light metro in Vancouver, the evening peak is much more peaked than the morning peak. Traffic in the evening peak hours is heavier and more concentrated than in the morning peak hours.

This isn't the experience in the UK - is it elsewhere, or is Vancouver unique?

What I'm used to is people all going to work at much the same time, so the morning peak is really confined to 2-3 hours. In the evening, some people rush straight home: others are delayed by meetings, the need to catch up or by socialising or shopping after work.

Is Vancouver the exception, or is it the UK?
