  • Outcomes in Suicidal Bridge Jumping in the Lower Mainland-JRB
    Outcomes in suicidal bridge jumping in the Lower Mainland by DYLAN STEPHANIAN BASc, The University of British Columbia, 2014 Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Experimental Medicine) The University of British ColumbiA (Vancouver) December, 2019 © Dylan Stephanian, 2019 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, the thesis entitled: Outcomes in suicidal bridge jumping in the Lower Mainland Submitted by Dylan Stephanian in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MAster of Science in Experimental Medicine. Examining committee Dr Jeff Brubacher, Emergency Medicine Supervisor Dr Doug Brown, Emergency Medicine Supervisory Committee Member Dr Andrew MacPherson, Emergency Medicine External Examiner ii Abstract On average, one person attempts suicide by jumping from a bridge in the Lower Mainland of British ColumbiA once every 14 days, but the population that jumps and their outcomes following a suicide attempt are poorly understood. A multi-agency retrospective chart review was performed using records from the Canadian Coast Guard, Joint Rescue Coordination Center, police departments, and the British Columbia Coroner’s Service to identify incidents. A complete picture of each incident was then built by identifying corresponding BC Ambulance Service and hospital records, and linking all records for each incident. This methodology successfully identified a comprehensive list of incidents, and may be useful in future prehospital and search and rescue medicine research. Records from the ten agencies involved in these incidents were collected and linked to create a dataset describing all known jumps from a bridge >12m in height in the Lower Mainland of BC from January 1, 2006 to February 28, 2017.

Victor Wei, P. Eng. Director, Transportation (604-276-4131) Att. 1 REPORT CONCURRENCE ROUTED To: CONCURRENCE CONCURRENCE OF GENERAL MANAGER Engineering Real Estate Services REVIEWED BY STAFF REPORT I INITIALS: AGENDA REVIEW SUBCOMMITTEE PWT - 30 5338814 March 27, 2017 - 2 - Staff Report Origin At the March 18,2015 meeting of the Public Works and Transportation Committee, members received a staff report for information regarding the installation of a dynamic message sign by the Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure (the Ministry) to provide northbound road users on Knight Street with up-to-date travel information. Installation of this sign is currently proceeding. Continuing the expansion oflntelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) that benefit Richmond's road users by allowing for more effective monitoring and management of traffic incidents, as well as the provision of real-time information to the public, this report describes the forthcoming installation of a complementary dynamic message sign by the Ministry to provide southbound road users on Knight Street with current travel information. Analysis Dynamic Message Signs The Ministry has installed a number of dynamic message signs (DMS) along provincial highways in Metro Vancouver that provide travellers with real-time information on road conditions such as travel times and wait times at Canada-US border crossings.

Vasquez1,2, Kara I. Hurtig1, Matt S. Gellis1, Andre Zimmerman1, Bruce W. Walsh1. 1 Northwest Hydraulic Consultants Ltd. (NHC), North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada 2 [email protected] ABSTRACT The construction of complex bridge piers in large sand-bed rivers has become increasingly common. These piers are made by driving or boring a group of piles deep into the riverbed and then connecting them by a pile cap on top, over which the stem of the pier supporting the deck is located. In contrast with conventional footings, the pile cap is located high above the riverbed and close to the water surface, functioning also as protection against ship collision. The combination of several piles, pile cap and stem above the riverbed gives the pier a complex geometry, which does not easily fit with the simple geometry commonly assumed by most scour prediction equations; hence the need for mobile-bed physical modelling in order to determine scour depths for design purposes. We report the results of several complex piers scour experiments carried out at Northwest Hydraulic Consultants’ laboratory including the Golden Ears Bridge, Port Mann Bridge and Pattullo Bridge in the Fraser River, British Columbia and the Padma River Bridge in Bangladesh. These pier tests encompass a wide range of conditions such as vertical and inclined piles (diameters from 1.8 to 3.0 m), rectangular, octagonal and dumbbell-shaped pile caps (pile cap lengths between 18 and 60 m), and flow discharges ranging from 2-year to 100-year floods.

  • George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project
    City of Memorandum Richmond To: Mayor and Councillors Date: February 10, 2016 From: Harold Steves File: 10-6350-05-08 Councillor Re: George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project Richmond Council is concerned about the abrupt change in direction from upgrading the George Massey Tunnel to building a bridge. Richmond Council was fully consulted on the publicly announced plan to twin the tunnel. Richmond Council was not consulted on the decision to change the plan to building a bridge. The following attachments show how the project changed abruptly from a tunnel to a bridge: 1. July 15, 2004 Massey Tunnel seismic upgrade. Province to spend $22.2 million on seismic upgrade for the Massey Tunnel. 2. Feb. 16, 2006 Twiruied tunnel part of Victoria's long term plan, "expanding Highway 99 on both sides of the tunnel from four lanes to six." "The project is on the back burner in part because it would put pressure on traffic bottlenecks to the north requiring expansion of the Oak Street and Knight Street bridges into Vancouver or a new bridge into Burnaby. 3. Feb. 18, 2006 Massey Tunnel to be twinned and "widened from four lanes to six once the provinces more pressing transportation projects are complete." "Twinning the tunnel would also require improvements to other crossings over the North Arm of the Fraser, such as Oak Street and Knight Street bridges, or a new crossing to connect with growing central Burnaby." 4. Dec 11, 2008 Bus lane will speed transit commute along Highway 99 with " high quality, point to point service ... between White Rock and Richmond.
