Road Closures on Cambie to Snarl Traffic During Oakridge Crane Deconstruction

road closures are scheduled on Cambie Street next week as a crane is dismantled at the Oakridge Park development. The closures will fully shut Cambie between West 41st and West 45th Monday to Wednesday, 7: 30 a. m. to 8 p. m. ET, and reduce traffic to one lane each direction Thursday to Saturday, 7: 30 a. m. to 8 p. m. ET. Officers from Vancouver Police Department will be on scene and access for residences and businesses will continue, though sidewalks and street access may be temporarily impacted.

Road Closures: scope and schedule

The work will fully close the busy thoroughfare to all vehicle traffic between West 41st and West 45th from Monday to Wednesday, 7: 30 a. m. to 8 p. m. ET. These road closures are tied to the deconstruction of a crane at the Oakridge Park development. After the full shutdown, traffic will be reduced at the same location to one lane in each direction from Thursday to Saturday, again from 7: 30 a. m. to 8 p. m. ET. The road will fully reopen when the crane is completely dismantled.

Impact and access

During the road closures, access to residences and businesses along the affected block will continue, but street and sidewalk traffic may be temporarily impacted. Officers from Vancouver Police Department will be on scene to direct traffic. Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians should expect changed traffic patterns and plan alternate routes where possible while the road closures are in effect.

What happens next

The crane deconstruction follows a recent closure of the Burrard Street bridge tied to crane removal at the Sen̓áḵw development; these road closures on Cambie echo that logistics pattern. The road will fully reopen when the crane is completely dismantled, ending the road closures. Monitor posted signage and follow direction from officers on site for updates on timing and lane restorations while crews complete the dismantling and reopening process.
