Pattullo Bridge Replacement Project

The new four-lane Pattullo Bridge will provide important improvements for everyone using the bridge, including people who are driving, cycling or walking, as well as communities on either side of the bridge, including:

A safer crossing for all bridge users with modern, wider lanes, separated by a center median barrier
Dedicated walking and cycling lanes, separated from traffic by a barrier on both sides of the bridge
Better connections to, from and near the bridge

Construction will begin in 2019 and the new bridge will open in 2023. Once the new bridge is open, the existing bridge will be removed. The Project will cost $1.377 billion and be delivered, funded and owned by the Province of B.C.

TyPlan was retained by the owner’s engineer ( Parsons Inc.) to undertake a navigational assessment for the project with the objective to determine the vertical horizontal and water draft requirements to maintain navigation. Working with the regulators Navigation Protection Program of Transport Canada and the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority (Port Authority) with references to international guidelines World Association for Waterborne Transport such requirements were determined.
