POSSIBLE ROUTE for connector road between Lions
Gate Bridge and the Upper Levels Highway bs shown in

IN WEST VANCOUVER

The possibility of a
connector road to provide a
direct link between the Lions
Gate B¥idge and the Upper
Levels Highway is to receive
serious examination by the
B.C. highways department.

West Vancouver Mayor
Derrick Humphreys, long a
proponent of such a link,
received a commitment.that
the highways ‘department
will undertake the necessary

shaded section of map. A

link to be s

study during a visit earlier
this month to Highways
Minister Alex Fraser.

The new road, said Mayor
Humphreys, would alleviate
heavy commercial and
tourist traffic on Taylor Way
which. presently handles
most of the traffic load
between the bridge and the

highway — both of which are —

provincially owned.
Traffic to the Horseshoe

engineering study is to get under way shortly.

Lumber, plywood, pulp and other forest products are vital to Bntish Columbia’s economy

these products to market is a pnme concem of the British Columbia Railway.

In fact, of all B.C. Rail carloadings, nearly 70% are comprised of forest products. With rail
service into all major operations throughout our system, and with a wide range of specialized
rail cars, we get the wood out quickly and efficiently

‘Bay ferries, Squamish and

Whistler has increased
enormously in the past few
years, Humphreys said, and
West Vancouver shouldn't
have to bear the burden of
non-residential traffic.

He emphasized that the
municipality would not
make any suggestions about
the alignment of the new

ied

road, although one route
being considered would take
it along the banks of the
Capilano River.

Municipal engineers will -
consult with ministry staff,
Humphreys added, but the
province has agreed to pay
the costs — “we're not in the
road design business” .
