Masks and hoarding. A Chinese person’s dream.
You know what always works in a crisis?
Price controls.
They're just flattening the price curve.

Shit is still stuck in Richmond… curious if UPS makes it through any time soon.
My understanding is that right now heavy traffic must use highway 3, and that is being prioritized because its running like 1/4 capacity. So that's enough to get some food and fuel moving, but not a whole lot else.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
The highway 3 webcams don't show much traffic yet. Suspect that'll pick up in a day or two, but the backlog will remain until there are additional routes open to heavy traffic.

Unless you find a camera that’s specifically over the single lane sections it’s unlikely you will see much traffic.
To my understanding highway 99 is fully open but with weight restrictions as mentioned and the best route to Calgary right now. Highway 3 is important for servicing okanagan though.

Anyone have pictures of the current situation? Every article seems to be using the same pics from right at the end of the rainstorm. Curious to see what Abbotsford area looks like now
Yeah for sure with a car hwy99 is the right choice. Shit it's the right choice to horseshoe bay even when 1 and 5 are open. Great road.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I’m invested in the situation so I’m trying to keep apprised.
Theoretically my new car is coming through there in the next few days so it will be interesting if it actually shows up. I have been assured it will but that kind of surprises me.

99 is open, but closed to non essential till Dec 1… I’m supposed to be driving to Squamish to get my camper on the 3rd (and require that UPS part to tie it down…).

The route through the states is currently about as slow as 99. And with the change in testing requirements I would probably go that direction to get there, then on the way back take 99 or whatever is available as “essential” (which as an Alberta you can to “get home”).
There are at least options right now if you need to get there or back.

This was likely an elaborate plot to keep us red plates out of BC for a while.
Well played Horgan, well played.
