This morning one of our highway maintenance trucks was hit by another commercial vehicle. Unbelievably both drivers walked away from this MVI. Our truck was outfitted with a crash attenuator trailer with arrow board; it’s a sort of mobile crash cushion designed to absorb some of the impact of a collision and protect our workers and the traveling public in the event of a collision.... Highway maintenance contractors in British Columbia provide essential services that benefit all of us. Help us help you - by slowing down in cone zones or when you approach maintenance and emergency vehicles with flashing red, blue, or amber lights. Get enough sleep before you get behind the wheel. Put the phone away and don’t speed or drive under the influence. Help us make it home safe to our families. www.instagram.com/eac.bc.ca/ #EmilAndersonMaintenance #EssentialServices4U #LetsHaveASafeJob #SlowDownMoveOver #ConeZoneBC #DriveBC

#ThrowbackThursday to the construction of the Hell's Gate tunnel. The Hell's Gate Tunnel is one of three Fraser Canyon tunnels completed by Emil Anderson Construction in the late 1950s and early 1960s. There are seven highway tunnels in this section of the Trans-Canada highway. The Hell's Gate tunnel, completed in 1960, is the shortest of the Fraser Canyon Tunnels with a length of 57 m (187'). The Hell's Gate Tunnel is also the only tunnel (of the 7) that does not have light...s. Today, the tunnels and this section of Highway 1 are maintained by Emil Anderson Maintenance, the road and bridge maintenance contractor for the BC Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure in Service Area 7 (Fraser Valley). www.instagram.com/eac.bc.ca/ #EmilAndersonConstruction #EmilAndersonMaintenance
