    News release Date: February 18, 2015 Page: 1 of 5 Media contacts: Lindsay Olsen, 604-982-4759 ICBC invests $391,000 to improve Tri-Cities’ roads You may have noticed the new sidewalks, pedestrian signals and bike lane in the community. These are some of the 30 road improvement projects ICBC invested $391,000 in last year to make Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody roads safer for everyone. This year marks the 25th anniversary of ICBC’s road improvement program with over $130 million invested in B.C. roads since 1990. Over the years, the road improvement program has evolved significantly. Successful partnerships, community investments and the use of innovative technology and tools have led to award winning projects and contributions that have helped advance the knowledge of the road safety engineering industry across Canada. “Safety is the highest priority and the ICBC road improvement program invests in important improvements that are specifically designed to make roads safer and more convenient for us to use,” said Douglas Horne, MLA for Coquitlam-Burke Mountain. “During the last year over $391,000 has allowed for the completion of projects that will make a difference for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians across the Tri-Cities.” “ICBC’s road improvement program identifies key projects that enhance safety for our families,” said Linda Reimer, MLA for Port Moody-Coquitlam. “I’m glad to see this effective program, which dates back to 1990, continue to make the roads safer for everyone.” In 2014, ICBC invested approximately $3.8 million in the Lower Mainland and $7.7 million in projects and safety audits across the province.

  • Existing Truck Routes Appendix “V” - Map of Proposed Truck Route Revisions
    CORPORATE REPORT NO: R152 COUNCIL DATE: July 22, 2019 REGULAR COUNCIL TO: Mayor & Council DATE: July 17, 2019 FROM: Acting General Manager, Engineering FILE: 8630-30 SUBJECT: Regional Harmonization of Truck Definition and Updating the Highway and Traffic Bylaw RECOMMENDATION The Engineering Department recommends that Council: 1. Receive this report for information; 2. Approve amendments to the Highway and Traffic By-law, 1997, No. 13007, as amended, as documented in Appendix “I” to this report; 3. Authorize the City Clerk to bring forward the necessary amendment Bylaw for the required readings; 4. Support proposed housekeeping amendments to Schedule C – Truck Routes of the Highway and Traffic By-law, 1997, No. 13007, as amended, as documented in Appendix “II” to this report for minor road name corrections and revisions; and 5. Authorize staff to submit the request for the amendments identified in Appendix “II” to TransLink in order to gain the authority pursuant to the South Coast British Columbia Transportation Act, [SBC 1998]. INTENT The purpose of this report is to inform Council about the collaborative work of staff with TransLink to harmonize the definition of heavy trucks across the Metro Vancouver region and seek Council approval to the proposed truck definition and proposed amendments to truck routes identified in Appendix II. BACKGROUND In Metro Vancouver, municipalities typically designate truck routes, defined through a municipal Bylaw, to be roadways where heavier trucks must travel until it is no longer possible to use a truck route to reach the intended destination. Designating specified truck routes helps to focus heavy truck traffic on key major arterial roadways that are better suited to accommodate that traffic.

  • Pitt Meadows Commercial & Industrial Lands Analysis
    Pitt Meadows Commercial & Industrial Lands Analysis For: City of Pitt Meadows March 2019 Pitt Meadows Commercial & Industrial Lands Analysis | ii THIS PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK Pitt Meadows Commercial & Industrial Lands Analysis | iii Executive Summary This document reflects two distinct research assignments: a retail study and an industrial demand and taxation analysis. The industrial demand and taxation analysis portion of the report is intended to update a report from 2013, also by GP Rollo and Associates (GPRA). The 2013 report was commissioned as background research to support the original application to exclude the North Lougheed study area from the Agricultural Land Reserve and to amend the Regional Growth Strategy to permit the eventual development of the area. It was also commissioned by the City to understand the impacts of larger scale commercial development on the city’s tax base. It is important to note that the 2013 analysis for the North Lougheed Lands was based on the land use concept put forward at the time which included mixed employment / light industrial areas and a retail shopping centre component. The new report uses the same land use assumptions as the 2013 report as a basis for comparison. This commercial analysis is intended as a part of a platform to help guide Council, public and staff discussion about the balance of all land uses in the municipality as a whole, and is not intended to be a land use plan for the municipality. INTRODUCTION – RETAIL AND SERVICE COMMERCIAL The City of Pitt Meadows (the City) is in the process updating its OCP policies regarding commercial development with particular focus on the Harris Road mixed use and commercial area.
