Well that’s great, BUT, can’t you do this paving at night when there is less traffic! My husband and I left Britannia beach yesterday at 130 to go to our tee time at 240, at squamish golf course, The traffic was backed up to Murrin!!
So it was a slow crawl to squamish and we didn’t get to the golf course until 330!! If this was in the lower mainland it would never have happened…they would have been told to do the paving at night by the ministry ( I know this because my husband is a retired highways maintenance supervisor)
Do the paving at NIGHT! You should not be able to hold up that much traffic…..ridiculous!

I didn’t even see signage yesterday…it should be at Britannia at least.
