Re: Port Mann bridge deficit climbs (The Leader, Feb. 24).
That the creation of a new bridge with more lanes has resulted in less traffic, though ironic, is a good thing. Tolling the old structure, of course, would have achieved the same end.
That “the popularity of the new express bus service over the bridge” is cited by government as one of the reasons is fantastic.
That government will do its best to increase traffic (“to attract more regular users to the bridge”) to pay for its debt, though, is not so wholesome.
