Every one on board for a national interest : ( safety and good judgement at all times ) and everywhere!

Construction in the the Burrard inlet…

  • A construction safety zone has been declared in a portion of eastern Burrard Inlet and Notices to Shipping have been issued by the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG). Additional notices have been distributed to Indigenous groups, local area residents, marinas, port users, pilots, industry stakeholders and others.
  • A floating construction safety boom around the immediate construction site is there to assist in ensuring the safety of boaters in the area; it is demarcated by navigation buoys carrying appropriate day and night markers. Please do not anchor your vessel near the buoys to avoid entangling your anchor with the buoy chains.
  • Boaters and other vessels will be able to navigate safely past the work area. Large commercial vessels navigating the area will continue to follow the well-established vessel movement practices under pilotage.
  • On-water safety vessels will provide guidance and assistance as required and they can be contacted via VHF radio Channels 09 and 16.
  • Trans Mountain will continue to regularly communicate and update all marine waterway users, including boaters, commercial fishers and Indigenous groups on construction activities in the construction area. Communication will include meetings or workshops with key user groups, mail-outs, local advertising and on-water and onshore signage.

For recreational users, a Transport Canada Safe Boating Guide provides valuable information and the VFPA has a Port Information Guide. Enquiries regarding recreational boating safety near the Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby can be directed to info@transmountain.com or 1.866.514.6700.
