Road Work at Intersection of David Avenue and Pipeline Road
Metro Vancouver's contractor continues work at the David Avenue and Pipeline Road intersection. Work began the week of June 23 and will continue for the next four months, weather permitting.
Work is currently taking place on the north side of the intersection at David Avenue and Pipeline Road, so traffic will be shifted into the south side of the intersection. To avoid delays, please plan for extra time or an alternate route.
Thank you for your patience as Metro Vancouver's contractor completes this necessary work.
