C12_routeNew route proposed for C12!  Express your opinion. Complete the on-line survey by March 9th.

Translink is in the stakeholder consultation phase of the North Shore Area Transit Plan Phase 3.    Two particular changes relate to Lions Bay - one being a proposed change to the C12 route. The proposed change would have the C12 wind along Marine Drive up to Caulfield after the Horseshoe Bay stop.  The change may lengthen the journey to and from Caulfield and could impact connections.

Dear Residents,

The broken water main on Bayview Road has now been fixed. The water supply to the area has been turned back on. You may experience cloudy water and it is highly recommended that you run the outside taps for 10 minutes to clear the pipes.

Also, please use caution when driving up on Bayview due to an excavator being partially parked on the roadway.

Thank you for your patience and consideration in this matter.

Sincerely,

Chuck Partridge
Manager, Public Works
