If you have driven out across the Ashlu Road bridge in the 麻豆社国产Valley over the winter, you would have noticed that it was getting a little worse for wear.
But not anymore.
The Ministry of Forests tells The 麻豆社国产 that recent inspections showed that the Ashlu Road bridge along the 麻豆社国产Valley Forest Service Road needed to be repaired, including new planking and guardrails.
Work began this past March, with local business Sqomish Forestry Limited doing the work.
"The job is expected to be ongoing until the end of the year," a spokesperson for the ministry says.
“The Ministry of Forests is committed to ensuring B.C.’s 12,000 kilometres of Forest Service Roads (FSRs) are designed, built, and maintained as safely and effectively as possible,” the spokesperson said.
Two other bridges that cross over Ashlu Creek, one at the 2.2 kilometre mark and the other at the 6.9 km mark, will also be undergoing repairs, but the timing has not yet been confirmed, according to the ministry.
45,000 vehicles travelled along the 麻豆社国产Valley Forest Service Road last year.
