Transportation during the Games is one of the biggest concerns for businesses, especially since there are some ‘myths’ or pieces of misinformation that might be going around.

Below are some of the most common myths we have heard, as well as what is actually going on during Games time:

• Myth: All of downtown Vancouver will be closed to traffic
• Fact: Some roads near venues will be closed for security, but most of downtown will be open. There will be some road network changes; have a look at the Games time map <http://amacus.net/2010cc/a.cfm?2rk5fb.0cijt9> to know what to expect in February 2010.
  

• Myth: You will need a special pass to make deliveries around downtown
• Fact: Local businesses will be able to make and receive deliveries 24 hours a day, but the City of Vancouver is recommending that all deliveries be planned between 12 midnight and 12 noon. Click here <http://amacus.net/2010cc/a.cfm?2rk5fb.02ijtz> for more information on deliveries.
  

• Myth: You will need a security pass to go through the Sea-to-Sky Highway
• Fact: A Sea-to-Sky check point pass is required only if you are traveling northbound from 6am to 6pm. This is not a security pass; it is only to ensure that you have a guaranteed parking spot in Whistler. If you are a resident or business in Whistler, you will be issued passes. Click here <http://amacus.net/2010cc/a.cfm?2rk5fb.0jfcbc> for more information.
  

• Myth: Pedestrian Corridors will be closed to traffic all day
• Fact: In downtown Vancouver, pedestrian corridors will be in effect from noon to midnight only. Access for vehicles will be maintained between midnight and noon. Click here <http://amacus.net/2010cc/a.cfm?2rk5fb.02ic9r> for more information on pedestrian corridors.
