Dear Mr. Peters:

Mary Hill Bypass at Broadway Street.

Please reference your letter of May 21, 1987 to the New
Westminster District Highways Manager requesting signalization of the
Mary Hill Bypass/Coast Meridian Road intersection, and our response
of July 23, 1987.

In our response we indicated Coast Meridian Road would not be

signalized but we would investigate the possibility of installing
signals at the Mary Hill Bypass/Broadway Street intersection.
Broadway Street is a network element and the spacing from the
existing signals at Pitt River Road and at Kingsway Avenue would
provide better signal progression capabilities than a signal at Coast
Meridian Road.

We __are now prepared to installa signal at the Mary Hill]
Bypass/Broadway Street intersection. subject ta our” normal
charing agreement, and the construction of a publie road through the
Industrial Park trom Broadway Street to Coast Meridian Road. As both
the Ministry and the City are responsible for two of the four.
approaches of the intersection, the cost of signal installation and
future power and maintenance charges are to be split on a 50/50
basis. Our estimated cost to install a signal at this intersection
is $40,000 and the City share would thus be $20,000.
