VANCOUVER – New traffic figures for the Port Mann Bridge are out and it shows a decline in drivers over the toll bridge.
The new Port Mann Bridge was opened on Dec. 1, 2012 as part of the Port Mann/Highway 1 Improvement Project. Regular tolling went into effect on Jan. 1, 2014 following a one-year introductory period.
The company running the bridge, TI Corp, says debt levels have reached $3.6 billion and its deficit is expected to grow. However, they are saying it is still on track to meet all payments.
