An important consideration is that the project is
situated between two very sensitive environmental
features: the Fraser River and Burns Bog. In
addition to a stringent environmental protection
program, this brings the challenge of soft ground
conditions, which the Design-Builder is responding
to by employing a number of ground improvement
techniques.
Construction began in the spring of 2020. To date,
the pandemic has had no impact on the project’s
anticipated completion in the fall of 2022. Nearing
the end of the first year of construction, Deane is
pleased to say that the team’s focus on safety and
effective traffic management has been a highlight.
