Ironworkers Memorial Second Narrows Crossing

Vancouver, North Van.

You intimately know about the Second Narrows Bridge.

Sure.

So you know the history about the bridge and the achievement that it was, but also the horrible devastation that occurred years ago.

Yeah.

I was looking at that, and when the Second Narrows Bridge collapsed, I guess it was in the 60s, and there was 70 plus 79 people who fell into the water.

And 18 of which had passed away.

And a dog.

Now, if they'd put that bridge in way back when, they would have had enough money left over to do that bridge and then, say, one to the North Shore.

Because the two biggest bottlenecks in our region... are the Massey Tunnel and Second Narrows Bridge.

Anytime there's a flat or some little minor thing, it's taking hours for people to get home.

Another thing about the bridge is that if you've got... oil or gas trucks.

It happened Saturday evening when the students from North Vancouver's Sutherland Secondary were two hours into a three-hour tour.

when the pride of Vancouver got stuck near the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge.

All passengers were transported to Harbour Green Park, while the crew stayed aboard.

A 29-year-old has been caught driving close to 100 kilometers an hour over the speed limit in a residential area of Abbotsford.

And not for the reasons you would expect.

The Pride of Vancouver ran aground in the Maplewood mudflats near the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge at around 9 last night.

The Coast Guard hovercraft crew was called out to help.

Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue says there were 150 grade 12 students and three adults on the ship.

Currently, we have great export at the Port of Vancouver.

We do have some vulnerabilities, of course, with the Second Narrows Bridge being very old infrastructure, hopeful to perhaps get some investments on there, that bridge soon.

But we are always thinking that more markets opens up opportunity, right? Competition is good.

Yeah.
