Moray Bridge

Richard Moody, who would name geographical features, such as this channel, after acquaintances, honoured Jonathan Moray (1824–84), a sergeant in the Corps of Royal Engineers, and later the New Westminster police chief.

The concrete and steel second bridge across the Moray Channel cost about $1m, of which the federal government contributed $400,000.

[2] The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure for BC owns and maintains this low-level two-lane bridge.

[11] The single lane each way, 1957–2001, was subject to traffic congestion from vehicle accidents, swing span openings for boats, or rush hour volumes.

Following the 2001 opening of the Sea Island Connector, the Moray Bridge has carried only eastbound traffic from YVR.
