Gateway to get $700 million Tom Fletcher Black Press Premier Christy Clark visited a North Vancouver bulk shipping terminal Monday to announce $700 million in new highway upgrades to develop B.C.’s Pacific Gateway program. The announcement didn’t include details of new highway upgrades, beyond current projects

such as the Port Mann-Highway 1 expansion and the South Fraser Perimeter Road, a truck route to port facilities in South Delta. A news release refers to further Highway 1 improvements between Kamloops and the Alberta border. Specific provincial project announcements are promised in the weeks to come. Instead the premier’s event

focused on private sector investments from the host company Neptune Terminals and others, which are gearing up to meet demand from Asian customers. “Neptune Terminals’ strategic investments have resulted in record terminal exports of potash and steelmaking coal, a 20-percent increase in jobs at our terminals, and significant additional growth to come as we complete

our expansions,” said Neptune president James Belsheim. Teck Resources CEO Don Lindsay also took part in the event, reviewing the mining company’s $1 billion investment over the last two years to expand production of metallurgical coal, copper and zinc. See TOLLS, Page A02
