The George Massey Tunnel will be closed overnight tonight (June 5) and tomorrow night (June 6) while crews carry out maintenance work.
The overnight shutdown of the tunnel is required as the Ministry of Transportation and Transit’s contractor performs essential maintenance on the tunnel in both northbound and southbound directions.
The northbound and southbound lanes will be closed in both directions from 10 p.m. on Friday, June 5 until 4:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 6, then again from 10 p.m. on Saturday, June 6 until 4:30 a.m. on Sunday, June 7.
Emergency services and transit vehicles will be accommodated during the closure, however other drivers should plan an alternative route like via the Alex Fraser Bridge.
Drivers are reminded to obey posted speed limits, and to pay attention to all signage and the direction of traffic-control personnel.
