Traffic delays for Cambie Bridge

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 19 Nov, 2024 04:34 PM
  • Traffic delays for Cambie Bridge

The City of Vancouver is warning the public about anticipated traffic delays — as well as walking and cycling detours — around Cambie Street Bridge starting this week.

It says in a news release that the disruptions will continue until the spring when rehabilitation work on the bridge deck is expected to be completed.

The city says the number of lanes open will vary as the work progresses, but at least one lane in each direction will always remain open.

It says the bridge will be accessible for pedestrians and cyclists, but bike lanes and sidewalks on one side of the bridge may be closed at times.

Eby wants all-party probe into B.C. vote count errors as election boss blames weather
Premier David Eby is proposing an all-party committee investigate mistakes made during the British Columbia election vote tally, including an uncounted ballot box and unreported votes in three-quarters of the province's 93 ridings. The proposal comes after B.C.'s chief electoral officer blamed extreme weather, long working hours and a new voting system for human errors behind the mistakes in last month's count, though none were large enough to change the initial results.
