8. COMMUNITY FORUM
Graham Mowatt
Mr. Mowatt expressed concern over the lack of transit options being provided to
residents of Maple Ridge by Translink to deal with the increase in traffic as a result
of the opening of the Golden Ears Bridge, the new Pitt River Bridge and the closure of
the Albion Ferry. He felt that that Maple Ridge should withdraw from the Greater
Vancouver Regional District if these concerns are not addressed by Translink.
