Update on temporary construction laydown yard near Valleycliffe
We’ve been working closely with the District of Squamish as we move forward with a temporary construction laydown yard northeast of Valleycliffe, which we plan to begin preparing in late March. This follows the District of Squamish Council decision in fall 2024 to approve a Temporary Use Permit for the yard, and issuance of the permit this month. The construction laydown yard will be used for storing equipment and materials, as well as parking and fuelling. These activities reflect a reduction in uses from our initial plans. In particular, we no longer intend to use an approximately 2.5 acre portion of land on the west side of the approved area, reducing the number of trees to be cleared, nor will we use site offices as originally planned. The yard’s location was selected in consultation with Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), whose land we are leasing for the yard. Beginning in late March crews will be undertaking vegetation and tree clearing at the temporary construction laydown yard, as well as along our new right of way.The new temporary construction laydown yard will be located near the intersection of Mamquam River Forest Service Road and Powerhouse Springs Road.Clearing works will generally occur from 7 a.m. - 8 p.m. Monday to Friday and 8 a.m. - 7 p.m. Saturdays.There will be trail closures in this area, including the Connector Trail north of the construction laydown yard. Closed areas are highlighted in yellow on the map below.Minor traffic delays on the nearby Forest Service Roads may occur to accommodate large trucks and the area will be monitored by traffic control personnel.We’ve notified nearby residents and local recreational groups to help bring awareness to this work and inform their trail-use planning. For safety and awareness, we’ll also be posting trail closure signage.Thank you for your patience, as we complete this work safely, and as quickly as possible.
