Drivers can expect heavy traffic volumes and delays from tonight (April 2) through tomorrow morning (April 3) on the Lions Gate Bridge, as crews work to install the temporary construction bridge cover for rehabilitation work.

This installation will require a single-lane closure from 9 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. tonight and single lane alternating traffic tonight starting at 10:30 p.m. through to 9 a.m. tomorrow morning.

Drivers are encouraged to find alternate routes and go to: www.DriveBC.ca for up to date information.

Once installed, this temporary bridge cover will be safe for normal driving speeds on the corridor and drivers are encouraged to drive with the normal flow of traffic.
