Darpan News Desk, 06 Aug, 2019 08:06 PM

    RICHMOND – Drivers are advised that two lanes, one in each direction, will be closed nightly beginning Tuesday, Aug. 6, 2019.


    The closures are expected to be ongoing until Aug. 18 and will allow crews to continue working on improving capacity to the Alex Fraser Bridge with an additional lane and moveable barrier system.


    Crews will remove the southbound painted lines and then begin applying the permanent lane lines.


    Drivers are reminded that the maximum speed limit on the bridge is now 70 km/h.
