​Our new gas line has now been built in Burnaby and Coquitlam, with 12km of new line successfully installed along Lougheed Highway, Bainbridge Avenue, Broadway, Gaglardi Way and Como Lake Avenue this year.

Work has now started finishing restoration of the areas we worked along the route and bringing the gas line into service. There will be some lane closures in November and December to support this work.

Next week this includes restoration work at:

• Broadway/Como Lake Avenue intersection with North Road, expected to take up to two weeks
• Spuraway Avenue east of Mariner Way in Coquitlam, work will take place between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., and is expected to be completed next week
• Madison Avenue between Lougheed Highway and Buchanan Street in Burnaby, work will take place between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., and is expected to be completed next week

All lanes on Como Lake Avenue reopened at the Robinson Street intersection in Coquitlam this week, and Bainbridge Avenue is expected to fully reopen for traffic near Queensbridge Avenue next week, weather dependent.

As work on our FortisBC Gas Line Upgrades nears completion, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank the communities of Burnaby and Coquitlam for their patience throughout construction this year.
