Every eff ort will be made to minimize noise and vibrati on associated with this work.
The work is being completed by specialist contractors to meet and exceed WorkSafe BC protocols and procedures. Crews will use jack hammers, saws, cranes and excavators. It will be noisy as they remove glass and steel from the buildings as well as cut into the concrete walls to make the separati on. All materials will be trucked off site for recycling and/or proper disposal. As the secti ons are removed, the contractor will construct a temporary exterior wall to protect the building. Working hours will be from approximately 07:30-17:00.
Excavati on is beginning on a porti on of the parking lot east of the ACB to construct a new fi re
department access road. In order to access the northeast parking lot, staff and visitors now need to walk around the north end of the Constructi on Zone, as the road in front of the ACB and L wing is closed.
The parking ti cket dispensers near the northeast parking lot (the “back 40”) will soon be moved as the current area is incorporated into the constructi on zone. The ti cket dispensers will be relocated near the pedestrian walkway connecti ng the northeast parking lot to the ring road.
