Hopefully the tunnel didn't spring a leak

DriveBC Highway Cam listing for George Massey Tunnel

Northbound tunnel (+associated highway) is closed and now vacated. Southbound traffic is a 3 lane parking lot at least north to Westminster Hwy.

It's a 20km detour to take the Alex Fraser bridge / Hwy 91 and then get back onto Hwy 99, it's times like these I would rather some more priority be placed on building a resilient road network. Being able to adapt when 2 bridges are closed is a pretty valuable feature in an earthquake zone.

Love how the news report says the accident happened on the north side when the image is of the south side

I noticed based on google maps that most people seem to be going up river road over to the alex fraser. Personally i would gone west on 17A to ladner trunk rd. Then along hwy 10 to 91 and then north.
