COQUITLAM (NEWS1130) - Police have confirmed a woman is dead after some sort of incident on the Port Mann Bridge.
Rudy says there is a body covered with a tarp on the pavement in front of semi. "It seems to be a pedestrian. It's a few metres from the edge of the bridge, into the road."
The bridge is now closed to eastbound traffic. The closure is expected to remain in effect for most of the afternoon. There are delays westbound after a fender-bender on the bridge as well.

I saw five cars and a semi pulled over to the side of the road at the foot of the Port Mann around 12:30. I was heading back into Surrey via the Lougheed onramp, when I let by an ambulance because of the one-lane on-ramp. Coming round the loop, I saw the cars and people on the side of the road, but the barriers were blocking the ground there.

co-worker drove by there maybe 20 minutes before it happened and I thought it was just a suicide case. RIP, the construction in that area has made it a frightening place to drive. Another co-worker evidently got stuck in surrey because of the influx of traffic on the pattula and the port mann westbound. This city has such shit infrastructure.

I haven't seen New West that backed up in a long time. All down Royal, up 8th and then down side streets to get onto 8th. It was crazy.
Thankfully even though the building I was working at is right down by Patullo, home is in the opposite direction-because there is nothing worse than getting stuck in bridge traffic for a bridge you don't want to take.

I went the Lougheed Hwy route via the Mission Bridge. Never seen the Lougheed that plugged up in the Coquitlam/Maple Ridge area. Lots of tolls collected on the Golden Ears, I bet.
I did have a good time yesterday. Checked out the new Wal Mart and Canadian Tire in whatever new mall they have in Maple Ridge.

| That's PoCo. You have to cross the Pitt Bridge and go through Pitt Meadows before you get to Maple Ridge.
