The Port Mann Bridge




This is another example of how the Campbell government is completely out of touch with reality. The Port Mann bridge should have been twinned before they built the Golden Ears bridge. The Golden Ears bridge will create more traffic on the Port Mann not reduce it.

Then comes the latest brainstorm. Instead of twinning the bridge they’re gonna make a ten lane super bridge which is twice as wide and twice as expensive. Think about if for a minute. It’s twice as expensive. That alone should scrap the idea.

Then look at the insane traffic congestion when the Patello bridge was shut down recently. If you twin the Port Mann, the existing Port Mann will still be able to function. If you expand the existing Port Mann that will create another commuters nightmare.

What’s was the line from Napoleon Dynamite? "Idiot!"
