It's a friggin hill, there's nowhere flat that you could do any of this for (other than the 5k run, but it'd be a punishment).
Touché. I probably took it annually, if that, when I lived in Vancouver.

They closed down the Burrard Street bridge for a dance party during the "Ride the Night" event a few years back before COVID...

Temporary support trusses are starting to go in for the upper crossbeam on the main tower.

You can't forget Christy Clark's tone deaf yoga plans for Burrard as well.

Interesting that the concrete pylons (one yet to come, I believe) look so big and wide as if made to accommodate a roadbed of six lanes, maybe even more, although I understand it is to be four lanes only.

It is indeed being built to accommodate six lanes and is designed with just the single tower.

The bridge will only have one pylon.

Thank you both for the clarification. I'm interested in what the final 'product' will be like. It will be good not to have to navigate the narrow, rickety Patullo anymore.

From Patullo Bridge Project twitter today:


With 15 piles fully installed at foundation N1, crews are now working on pouring the concrete pile cap at this site.
N1 is the second of 2 in-river bridge foundations and is located on the @New_Westminster side of the Fraser River.

Here's last month's large pour.

Quote:
On June 27th, concrete was poured continuously for 30 hours at N1, the in-river bridge foundation on the New Westminster side of the Fraser River.

Concrete is poured over rebar to create the pile cap. Once complete, columns to support the bridge deck will be constructed here.
