5220-30/GMTR From The Corporation of Delta F.02 COUNCIL REPORT Regular Meeting To: Mayor and Council File No.: 5220-30/GMTR From: Engineering Department Date: January 11, 2016 George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project: Project Definition Report The following report has been reviewed and endorsed by the Chief Administrative Officer. II RECOMMENDATION: THAT this report be received for information . .. PURPOSE: The purpose of this report is to provide an update on therelease of the Project Definition Report ("the Report") and the commencement of the third phase of consultation on the George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project ("the Project"). II BACKGROUND: Since the initiation of the Project in 2012, the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure Ministry ("the Ministry") has held two rounds of public consultation, in 2012 and in 2013. The most recent consultation in 2013 "Exploring the Options" confirmed that the preferred solution was to replace the tunnel with a new bridge. The Highway 99 Corridor is a key component of the regional and provincial transportation system, and the existing George Massey Tunnel ("the Tunnel"), built in 1959, is currently over capacity and no longer meets modern seismic standards. II DISCUSSION: Project Definition Report The Report was released on December 16, 2015 (Attachment A) and is now available for public comment. It presents the Ministry's vision for replacing the Tunnel and related Highway 99 improvements between Bridgeport Road in Richmond and Highway 91 in Delta. The Report provides details on the proposed bridge which is being designed to accommodate 10 lanes in total, five in each direction. The five lanes will consist of three general traffic lanes, a lane for slow moving trucks and a dedicated transit/HOV Page 2 of 3 George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project: Project Definition Report 5220-30/GMTR January ii, 2016 lane. In addition, the bridge will include a separated multi-use path for pedestrians and cyclists. The Highway 99 improvements (Attachment B) will include construction of up to 50 kilometres of dedicated transit/HOY lanes between Bridgeport Road in Richmond and Highway 91 in Delta, a southbound ramp exit connecting to River Road South and the replacement of the Highway 17 A interchange. A new overpass will also be built at the Matthews Interchange and at 112 Street. The estimated capital cost for the Project is $3.5 billion. The Project aims to reduce congestion that commuters currently face each day, and offers long-term options for transportation improvements in the region. Currently almost 60 percent of daily vehicle trips through the Tunnel are between Richmond and the communities south of the Fraser River. On completion of the Project it is estimated that journey times for commuters could be reduced by up to 30 minutes a day. Two public open houses are scheduled to take place, on January 26 and 272016. The public open house for Delta will take place on January 27 in the Delta Town and Country Inn from 2-8 p.m. The public comment period is open from December 16,2015 until January 28, 2016. As a key stakeholder, staff meets with the Ministry on a bi­ weekly basi,s and will continue to provide feedback on the Project as it progresses. The planned raised alignment of Highway 99 at River Road will allow the Corporation of Delta to extend River Road South eastward under the approach ramp, thus providing a secondary access between Ladner and Highway 99. Staff has included the design for this improved municipal road network in the 5 Year Capital Plan. Other Updates Environmental Assessment The Project has triggered an Environmental Assessment under the BC Environmental Assessment Act; however, a federal assessment under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act is not required as the Project does not meet the threshold for review. As part of the pre-application process, the BC Environmental Assessment Office is seeking public comments until February 15, 2016. The associated BC Environmental Assessment Office public open house will take place concurrently with the dates and locations scheduled for the Project Definition Report, noted above. A report on this subject along with staff comments will be provided at the February 1, 2016 Regular Meeting of Council. BC Hydro Prior to commencing the bridge construction, BC Hydro will need to remove the power lines from within the Tunnel. It is anticipated that construction to move the power lines will commence by mid 2016.

Final decisions will be made based on feedback received during Phase 3 consultation, along with remaining technical studies and the environmental review. The Ministry has a mandate to develop transportation strategies that move people and goods safely and grow our provincial economy. In developing this report, the Ministry consulted widely, gaining insight from municipalities, First Nations, Metro Vancouver, TransLink, the agricultural community, environmental groups, first responders, recreational groups, local businesses, local residents, marine users, cyclists, other stakeholders and the general public. The Ministry also conducted planning, engineering, geotechnical and environmental analyses; worked with engineering, environmental and other subject-matter experts; and collected data on historic, current and forecast population and economic growth, and on traffic patterns. Supporting plans, consultation and analyses are outlined in Appendix A. The Ministry acknowledges the efforts of many stakeholders and partners, including First Nations, and municipal and TransLink staff members, who met regularly with the Project Team to discuss respective plans and provide insight into Project development. The Ministry also thanks all who have taken the time to share their views on this Project to date, and invites everyone to offer comments on this Project Definition Report.

    City of Delta COUNCIL REPORT F.07 Regular Meeting To: Mayor and Council From: Corporate Services Department Date: February 21, 2018 George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project Update The following recommendations have been endorsed by the Acting City Manager. • RECOMMENDATION: THAT copies of this report be provided to: • Honourable Marc Garneau, Minister of Transport • Honourable Carla Qualtrough, Member of Parliament for Delta • Chief Bryce Williams, Tsawwassen First Nation • Honourable Claire Trevena, Minister of Transportation & Infrastructure • Ravi Kahlon, MLA Delta-North • Ian Paton, MLA Delta-South • Metro Vancouver Board of Directors • Mayors' Council on Regional Transportation • PURPOSE: The purpose of this report is to provide an update on some of the key issues related to the George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project (GMTRP), particularly in light of the Province's recent announcement regarding the Pattullo Bridge, and to provide a consolidated summary for Council's information. • BACKGROUND: On February 16, 2018, the BC government announced that it is moving forward with the construction of a $1.38 billion bridge to replace the Pattullo Bridge. This raises some questions regarding the George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project, which has been on a five-month hiatus since the Province announced last September that it was undertaking an independent technical review of the crossing. Both projects are badly needed; however, unlike the Pattullo project which is only part-way through the environmental assessment process, the tunnel replacement project is shovel-ready, has received its environmental assessment certificate and has completed the bidding process. Furthermore, in terms of both vehicular and transit traffic, the George Massey Tunnel carries Page 2 of 5 GMTRP Update February 21 , 2018 significantly higher volumes than the Pattullo Bridge (Attachments 'A' and 'B' show the volumes for all the Fraser River crossings).

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.
