Today, we attended the opening of the new Coast Meridian Bridge (CMO), which is an enhanced traffic link between north and south Port Coquitlam. PoCo is divided laterally by the massive CP Rail Yards, so to go north or south one has to drive all the way around the yards, which can easily add 20 minutes to a road trip. The new CMO should make that route a lot easier. The name "Coast Meridian" refers to the first survey line of the Vancouver area, which rises north exactly where the curve of Semiahmoo Bay crosses our border with the United States.
