“Port Mann Bridge twining gets green light.” CBC News 13 Jun. 2008. 3 Nov. 2008 website.
A current article about that explains that the PMB twining project has passed an environment assessment and is looking for a contractor. Comments are given by an NDP MLA opposing the project on ground that the road will remain congested once completed and a member of Get Moving BC supporting the project.
This article demonstrates that the project is currently moving forward even with ongoing debate.

I am opposed to most vehicular infrastructure expansion projects and a strong supporter of improvements to mass transit.
I am fully aware of my bias and will try to give equal weight to valid arguments on this issue.
