Single 10-lane bridge to replace Port Mann
The B.C. government unveiled its plans Wednesday to replace the Port Mann Bridge on Highway 1 east of Vancouver with a single 10-lane bridge.
The full cost of the project will be financed through electronic tolls, which will be $3 each way for cars. The government will retain control of the rate of the tolls.
Premier Gordon Campbell said the construction on the new bridge connecting Coquitlam and Surrey across the Fraser River would begin immediately and eventually create 8,000 jobs by the time the project is completed in 2013.
In front of waiting reporters, the premier helped start the driving of the first pile for the bridge foundation.
"Right now, congestion on the Port Mann Bridge is approaching 14 hours a day, and it's harming our economy, our environment and quality of life," said Transportation Minister Kevin Falcon.
"The Port Mann-Highway 1 Project will help travellers see a time savings of up to 30 per cent due to reduced congestion. This is time better spent at their workplace or with their families."
The capital cost of the project, including upgrades to 37 kilometres of Highway 1 on either side of the bridge, will be $2.46 billion, said Campbell.
The total cost, including operating costs and maintenance, rehabilitation and interest, is expected to be approximately $3.3 billion
