| Post subject: | Myra canyon trestles to be rebuilt |
Found this snippet on the web about rebuilding the trestles beginning. http://www.trailsbc.ca/okanagan_region/myra-canyon.html "Trestle Reconstruction Underway "On August 26, 2004, Premier Gordon Campbell and Senator Ross Fitzpatrick announced a $13.5-million partnership between the provincial and federal governments to rebuild the historic Myra Canyon trestles. Work began on Trestle #18 in October, 2004 with the plan to have it completed by year-end. Work will continue on the remaining trestles in 2005 with a target date of late 2007 for re-opening the rail grade. Visit the "Trails BC News & Events" page for more information." More info at http://www.trailsbc.ca/news.html "The historic Myra Canyon trestles will be rebuilt by 2007 for $13.5 million through a federal-provincial disaster assistance partnership, Premier Gordon Campbell announced Thursday." |
