6:30am to 6:30pm March 18th 2025
The detour route will direct traffic to N. Maquinna Drive via Quadra Street or Rogers Street.
Alpine View Road will be temporarily closed to vehicle and pedestrian through-traffic between Quadra Street and Rogers Street while construction is underway.

Residents of Alpine View Road will have access to driveways during the road closure, with the exception of the properties directly adjacent to the work zones. These properties will have restricted driveway access for the duration of the closure. It is requested that those residents park street side away from the work zones for the times listed above.
See attached letter for more details and a photo of the work areas.
Plan any travelling in advance and expect traffic congestion and delays.
If you would like any further details please contact Nora Hudson, Project Manager for Makon Projects 778-744-3537
This alert will remain in effect until the road re-opens but is expected to end 6:30pm March 18th 2025. If work does not proceed on the above date, an updated notice will be issued.
Use alternate routes or posted detours.
If you are not in the area, avoid the area.
Follow the direction of the local authorities.

Tandem Vehicles Restriction on Perry Brothers Bridge
alertable.ca/#/incidents/6c14837a-93b4-4f4a-9c95-5847c3814bc3
As a precaution, no tandem axle vehicles and trailers are to use the Perry Brothers Bridge until the Village's structural engineers conduct a condition assessment.
Village crews observed failed timber ties on the Perry Brothers Bridge which traverses the Tahsis River on the road leading to the Comox Strathcona Waste Management (CSWM) Tahsis landfill. As a result, there is movement of the steel braces and girder assembly when heavy equipment is crossing the bridge.
Other risk mitigation measures are also being considered and will be communicated as soon as possible if enacted. This may effect landfill access.
This alert will remain in effect until the bridge re-opens.
Use light duty vehicles only at this time
Reduce speed and exercise caution around the site.
Follow the directions of local authorities and ground crews
Do not call 911 for information or updates.
