TransLink news, commentary, and behind-the-scenes stories.

When you hear TransLink, you likely think of our buses, SkyTrain, SeaBus and the West Coast Express. So, you may be surprised to learn we invest in regionally significant roads, cycling, and pedestrian infrastructure to better connect Metro Vancouver communities too!

It’s all part of our mission to connect the region and enhance its livability by providing a sustainable transportation network.

These bridges, which are part of the Major Road Network, are critical transportation links for the movement of people, goods, and services.

Think of how you head to your doctor for annual check-ups. It’s the same for our bridges! We conduct an annual check-up on all our bridges.

As a result, on the Pattullo Bridge, it requires overnight closures in the northbound or southbound direction between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. to ensure the safety of the workers and motorists travelling on the bridge.
