Wednesday, September 25 9:00 - 11:00
Description:

Pre-registration required.

Please meet in Hall B at the Info booth 15 minutes prior to departure to find your Tour Lead.

False Creek is crossed by three bridges (Burrard, Granville and Cambie) that support vital transportation connections to/from Downtown Vancouver. The City’s priorities are to shift to an environmentally sustainable transportation system, to improve seismic resiliency, and to rehabilitate these structures. Each bridge is unique in terms of age, condition, structural design and architectural character. This tour will highlight the Granville Connector and North Loops Reconfiguration Project (considered an excellent example of “city re-building”), discuss the City’s integrated capital project delivery strategy, and provide numerous “lessons learned”.

Requirements: Participants are asked to bring their own high-visibility vest, although this is not mandatory.

Mode of Transportation: Bus and walking
