Pattullo Bridge Review - PlaceSpeak

The City of New Westminster, City of Surrey and TransLink are working together to review and evaluate potential alternatives to rehabilitate or replace the Pattullo Bridge and to determine a solution that meets the needs of communities connected by the bridge, as well as the broader region served by the bridge.

PlaceSpeak is one tool being used in the review process.  Here is the link to the topic page - https://www.placespeak.com/topic/751-pattullo-bridge-review-consultation/

The topic page was launched this morning and more features will be added as the consultation plan rolls out over the coming months.

Please feel free to pass on this information to other interested friends, neighbours or colleagues especially those who share an interest in the future plans for the Pattullo Bridge.
