The Gateway 30 Network is having a rally this Saturday. We oppose the Govt's 'Gateway Strategy' which has ignored the expert's overall consensus that it is completely out of touch with reality. This project will ruin the liveability of this region, unless changed drastically. Please come out and support our initiative for a better transportation and Liiveable Regions Strategy.See what all the fuss is concerning the Gateway Project! This Saturday, March 31 between 2-5 pm at the East Delta Community Hall. Corner of 104 & Hwy 10. Spitting distance to Hwy 99. Exit to Hwy 10 west off Hwy 91. Exit to Hwy 10 east off Hwy 99. 1 mile from exit. Large white building with curved/domed roof.
Hope to see you there
Every day that I work I can
Every day that I work I can see barges from Vanisle shippping up to 36 transport containers at a time across to the island. I cannot understand why we cannot barge the containers from Deltaport, Fraser Surrey docks and Vanterm around the Lower Mainland or further towards Langley where the highway is easily accesable. This would alleviate the need for a ring road following the river, keep trucks off of the bridges and help to clear up congestion. The river is already there, all we would need are barges which would not come close to the cost of the road required. Any explination?
