We’re starting joint replacement work on the Georgia Viaduct this summer to keep it safe and reliable.
Although the viaducts are planned to be removed and replaced with a street network as part of the Northeast False Creek Plan, the timeline for their removal is still uncertain. Until then, ongoing maintenance is required.
Information icon The westbound Dunsmuir Viaduct will not be impacted.
This project is being delivered with support from TransLink.
Funding is provided through their Major Road Network Structures Local Government Program External website, opens in new tab.

We’ll begin replacing 6 joints on the eastern end of the viaduct.
During this work, expect:
