The provincial government says it's "moving forward" with the construction of a Pattullo Bridge replacement, estimated to cost $1.377 billion.
The project will be "delivered solely by the province," according to a release. Premier John Horgan made the announcement in New Westminster this morning, joined by Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Claire Trevena and Municipal Affairs and Housing Minister Selina Robinson.
"This is an essential transportation link that British Columbians rely on, and it's our job to make sure it's safe and gets people moving better," Horgan said in a release. "Replacing the Pattullo Bridge will help people get home to their families quickly and safely, while creating good jobs for local workers."
