    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).

File: 01-0150-20- Director, Transportation THIG1/2016-Vol 01 Re: George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project- Key Highway Infrastructure Features Staff Recommendation 1. That a letter be sent to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure requesting that: (a) measures be incorporated into the design of the Steveston Highway Interchange ramps to mitigate the noise, lighting and visual impacts of the ramps such as the installation of a green wall/vertical garden or other decorative concrete forms on the vertical walls; (b) principles to ensure the security of transit passengers (i.e., Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) and mitigation measures to address the noise, visual and air quality impacts be incorporated into the design of the transit exchange located within the Steveston Highway Interchange; and (c) the design for the widening of Highway 99 near the Steveston Highway Interchange be re-examined with a view to minimizing the extent of widening while not comprising safety and its functions; 2. That a follow-up letter be sent to the Provincial Agricultural Land Commission reiterating the City's concerns regarding the Ministry' s application for Transportation, Utility and Recreational Trail Use along the Highway 99 corridor to allow for the widening of Highway 99 as part of the Project; and 3. That the report titled "George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project- Highway Infrastructure Features" dated September 28, 2016 be forwarded to the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Office for consideration as part of the City's second round of comments further to the initial 30-day Working Group review period on the Provincial Environmental Assessment Application for the George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project.

  • George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project Review of Replacement Options
    PREPARED FOR: MINISTRY OF TRANSPORTATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE GEORGE MASSEY TUNNEL REPLACEMENT PROJECT REVIEW OF REPLACEMENT OPTIONS JULY 2016 PURPOSE OF T HIS REPORT As part of WSP|MMM Group’s role as Owner’s Engineer forfor thethe replacementreplacement ofof thethe George Massey Tunnel (the Tunnel ), independent technical and engineering analyses were carried out to determine if a bridge is indeed the preferred replacement option . The results of this independent analysis are provided in this report. Joost Meyboom, Dr.sc.tech., P.Eng. i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Congestion at the George Massey Tunnel (the Tunnel) has been of concern for decades and causes significant delays to the public and the movement of goods and services on a daily basis. In addition, there are a number of safety issues associated with the Tunnel including substandard geometry, poor access for first responders and vulnerability to earthquakes. In 2007 it was recognized that the Tunnel’s seismic vulnerability could not be fully addressed with a retrofit. As such the Ministry completed sufficient structural upgrades to the Tunnel to protect public safety and installed an early warning system to prevent access to the Tunnel during seismic events greater than the 1-in-275 year event. Planning for the replacement of the Tunnel commenced in 2012 and, based on the analysis of five replacement options, a public consultation process was completed which identified a new bridge on the same alignment as the Tunnel as the preferred replacement option. As part of WSP|MMM Group’s role as Owner’s Engineer for the replacement of the Tunnel (the Project), independent analyses were carried out to determine if a bridge is indeed the best replacement option.

Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Approval Name: Devon Robert Farmer Degree: Master of Urban Studies Title: An ex post facto evaluation of a Metro Vancouver Transportation Plan Examining Committee: Chair: Peter V.

With this information, future planning efforts can be improved. Accordingly, this thesis offers an ex post facto evaluation of Metro Vancouver’s Transport 2021 medium-range transportation plan to determine its effectiveness and recommend how to improve future plans. In 1993, this plan recommended regional transportation policies and projects for the horizon year of 2006. Using a mixed-methods approach adapted from Laurian et al., the plan’s logic, implementation, and outcomes were examined, and factors affecting the results were considered.

    City of Delta F.07 COUNCIL REPORT Regular Meeting To: Mayor and Council File No.: 5220-30/GMTR From: Engineering Department Date: October 26, 2017 Review of Bridge Traffic Volumes Since Tolls were Removed The following report has been reviewed and endorsed by the City Manager. • RECOMMENDATION: THAT this report be received for information . .• PURPOSE: The purpose of this report is to provide the recent traffic volume data for Fraser River crossings in the Lower Mainland since bridge tolls were removed. • BACKGROUND: Bridge tolls on the Port Mann Bridge and Golden Ears Bridge were removed on September 1, 2017. A press release from the Province indicated that removal of the tolls would shorten commute times, help improve traffic flow on other bridges and clear up other routes so people could spend less time queued in traffic. • DISCUSSION: Updated traffic count information has been provided from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure for the Fraser River crossings in the Lower Mainland (Attachment A) . Table 1 below shows detailed traffic volumes for September 26, 2017 compared to September 27,2016. T a bl e 1 .
