Silence is golden but the cost of quieting down the Lions Gate Bridge is $4.2 million.
The slapping sound that accompanies trips over the iconic bridge should fade away following repair work that involves work on 25 joints that connect Marine Drive to the bridge.
Of the 25 joints on the north approach viaduct, 20 are scheduled to be eliminated and five are slated to be replaced.
The work is scheduled to begin in the first week of July - including under-deck work by day and above-deck work at night.
Drivers should be "minimally affected" by daytime work, according to a release from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure.
The work should also reduce long-term maintenance costs, according to the release.
