About this crossing
The Ironworkers carries Highway 1 over the Second Narrows between the North Shore and East Vancouver: six lanes, no counterflow and the Cassiar Tunnel on the Vancouver side running the freeway under Hastings toward Highway 1 east. Locals say the Ironworkers or the Second Narrows; the signs say Ironworkers Memorial Second Narrows Crossing and the name honours the workers who died building it. Mornings it queues southbound from Main Street and Mountain Highway on the North Shore, afternoons northbound from the Cassiar and the Hastings on-ramps and it is the crossing that takes the whole North Shore when the Lions Gate is closed. The alternate is the Lions Gate via the Upper Levels, and for anyone bound for Burnaby or the east there is no alternate at all.
