Fucking city needs more bridges.
Last year they shut the Alex Fraser and the Patullo during morning rush hour due to separate incidents and it took me 4 fucking hours to get from metrotown to nordel.
Also a big fuck you to the guy who decided to inconvenience half the lower mainland at 7:40am. Get the help you need...but still fuck you.

Whole place was a mess according to my dad. My dad works at Starlight and when he got there he got turned away by the cops so his boss told him to take the day off.

I saw the 410 bus (22nd Ave Skytrain Station to Delta?) was stuck in traffic on Marine (Westbound). I feel sorry for anyone who wanted to get to work and had a 4hour detour. I would've gotten off and gone home.
