Work on the Highway 99 section of the Mamquam Road sewer upgrade project will be delayed until 2022 due to a combination of inclement weather and length of time required in order to plan and execute a project of this scale. Unsuccessful drilling attempts under Highway 99 forced the unexpected delay which now requires open-trench excavation across the highway. Mamquam Road between Government Rd and Highway 99 is expected to reopen by the end of October, and will close again when the project resumes in 2022. 

Please visit the Mamquam Project page for more information.
