BC Conservatives promise ‘grade separation’ for ‘dangerous and congested’ Nanaimo Parkway
NANAIMO — The B.C. Conservatives have included areas of the Nanaimo Parkway in their transportation plan, should the party be elected later this month.
Leader John Rustad announced on Thursday, Oct. 3 their “Get BC Moving” plan focused around transportation initiatives province wide.
While many are focused in and around the Lower Mainland, including an expansion of Hwy. 1 in Chilliwack, a widening of the new Patullo Bridge and a new Ironworkers Memorial Bridge, the Nanaimo Parkway was also identified as a priority.
“Upgrade Highway 19 in Nanaimo with grade separation at the most dangerous and congested intersections,” the plan reads with no further detail.
