In November, I like to deke out of the office and catch the city lights at twilight. This is the Lions Gate Bridge from Propect Point in Stanley Park, Vancouver, BC, Canada.

The term "Lions Gate" reflects the Lions, a pair of mountain peaks north of Vancouver. The total length of the bridge including the north viaduct is 1,823 metres (5,890 feet). The length including approach spans is 1,517.3 m (4,978 ft), the main span alone is 473 m (1,550 ft), the tower height is 111 m (364 ft), and it has a ship's clearance of 61 m (200 ft). Prospect Point in Stanley Park offered a good high south end to the bridge, but the low flat delta land to the north required construction of the extensive North Viaduct. The bridge has three reversible lanes, the use of which is indicated by signals. The centre lane changes direction to accommodate for traffic patterns. The traffic volume on the bridge is 60,000 - 70,000 vehicles per day. Trucks exceeding 13 tonnes (14.3 tons) are prohibited, as are vehicles using studded tires. The bridge forms part of Highways 99 and 1A. On 24 March 2005, the Lions Gate Bridge was designated a National Historic Site of Canada.

Me Checking out this Street Light Repair Truck. I got this as I wanted more vehicle parts and I wanted to check out the street light design and parts for my lego city street. I got this mainly as I remembered how cool it looked on Wombats Photostream. I also picked up Lego Set 7280 (x2) & 7281. Straight & Curved Roads and Cross Roads Junction. My city is getting there I just need some buildings now! :-)
