right now traffic is a nightmare. Almost all the side routes are being affected. Government is closed down till sometime next year because of the pipeline project and the other Lougheed alternative to the north is also affected by the pipeline, with reduced lanes and sometimes closures at random.
The winston alternative has been closed off for what seems like years, if it ever ever reopens you can only go far using it anyway cause of the closure of Government. Lougheed itself is slow with lane closures in the Brentwood area and Gilmore has lane closures and some kind of work going on.
I tried south of hwy 1 using side roads around 16th and such in east Burnaby and it was closed off for months and I haven't tried lately cause it was closed still a few weeks ago.
Gaglardi has had some lane closures for months due to the pipeline and Como Lake has had lane closures for months due to some upgrades, its only recently mostly reopened to allow two lanes to get through east bound.
Its a nightmare trying to get from Vancouver to Coquitlam, as the only real options are the Barnet, the Lougheed and Hwy 1. Lougheed is just a crawl from Lake city way eastbound.
