Construction milestone reached in Coquitlam
We have reached a significant milestone for construction on the Eagle Mountain – Woodfibre Gas Pipeline Project. We are pleased to share we’ve completed the installation of approximately three kilometres of the new natural gas pipeline in Coquitlam’s Eagle Mountain area.Beginning July 11, crews will begin hydrotesting this section of the pipeline. This important, routine process ensures the pipeline meets the highest standards of safety, integrity, and regulatory compliance. The work is anticipated to occur over a weeklong period and will generally occur between 7 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. Monday to Friday, as well Saturday 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.Once hydrotesting is complete, final reclamation activities will begin and are expected to continue through to the end of 2025. For your safety, please avoid entering any restricted areas during this time. We appreciate the community’s continued patience as we safely work to complete these activities.
