Local governments petition province to prioritize Highway 1 bridge replacement at Sicamous
The District of Sicamous is sending a letter to the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure aimed at expediting replacement of the R.W. Bruhn Bridge, a project that began in 2017.
“The shape of the bridge is a serious safety concern for east and westbound traffic,” Anderson said at the Jan. 11 Sicamous council meeting.Anderson’s letter mentioned bridge closures and delays impact the public’s ability to access essential and emergency services. Included with the district’s submission to the ministry is a letter from Sicamous Sgt. Murray McNeil, detailing every report involving a motor vehicle collision, road hazard or incident in the Sicamous RCMP’s database that mentions the bridge. There were 17 reports included from August 2016 to August 2022.
