For the second weekend in a row, West Vancouver police are advising drivers to avoid the Lions Gate Bridge at night, this time for a paving project.
Starting Friday at 8 p.m., the bridge will be down to one lane in each direction while work crews repave the north viaduct. Starting at 10 p.m., that will be reduced to single-lane alternating traffic until 8 a.m, the following morning.
A similar work schedule is in place for Saturday night into Sunday morning.
At least one sidewalk will remain open during construction. The work is weather dependent.
“Motorists, cyclists and pedestrians are urged to use extra caution during lane closures and respect the safety of the paving crews and traffic control personnel,” the statement from West Vancouver police reads.
