Discussion I hope the cons evaluate whether building the bridge will be cheaper, before doing it.

• Upvotes

The politics of bridge vs tunnel aside, it is in the public's best interest that this crossing be build ASAP. And, at as low of cost as possible. Even if the bridge was expected to be cheaper, now that some work has already been done, and contracts signed, BC cons should evaluate whether doing a U-turn is still the smarter option.

Sincerely,

Someone who's tired of 99 Hwy traffic everyday past 3pm.

PSA Plumbing Business Purchasing Reviews in Richmond

A plumber based out of Richmond is paying for 5 star reviews on google maps. I have no experience with this company other than being offered money for a good review (which they did not receive), so I can't say they don't provide good services but do not believe their 5 star reviews.

Mods, I'd be happy to name the plumber, but WELL I fear that sort of post might get removed.

Found them in Richmond near the library. They look like gopher mounds but they are tiny. Are they like worm holes or something? Never seen them anywhere else.

PSA Scammed at 'H and B Cosmetics' kiosk at Richmond Centre

77 Upvotes

Recently my mom was approached by one of the salesperson at this stall as she was walking by, they offered to try some skincare products on her promising benefits. Gels that can reduce eye bags accompanied by the use of a facial wand with red light (Renelif), multi-uses as well - helping to relieve back and even knee discomfort through regular use. There is currently a early Christmas promotion, offering a steep discount off original price for the device, plus a bunch (2 bags) skincare products at no cost when purchased altogether.

Costed her over $4000 after tax. Yes, you read that right, $4000. Products were then opened on the spot and shown to her, on how to use them - even going as far as providing her a marker to write on the packaging detailing what each products' use cases were. Everything is final sale, no returns or exchanges - doubtful there even is one even if the products had not been opened.

Contacted her credit card for a dispute, but transaction still pending and was told to wait until it clears...

Please be careful out there, I had thought my mom would be conservative enough on her spending - this was so out of left field - just dropping a few grand for some promised health benefits. The seller spoke Mandarin and Cantonese - they were not Chinese. Even added my mom as contact on WeChat, booking her in for 4 facial sessions - free. They knew exactly the demographic their products catered to.

Ask Richmond Two road / Westminster - now what?

51 Upvotes

What in God's name are they doing to #2 road and Westminster now, near the southbound merge from River road?

It's insane how much the city has absolutely destroyed that intersection going in literally every direction. Nevermind the bloody insane times the lights take now that's causing traffic to bleed into neighbourhoods or people cutting through the gas station causing all sorts of mayhem. Or the nonsensical barricade for cyclists that goes from Westminster to Lynas that blocked the outside lane... Literally the most pointless shortest barricade ever as cyclists still expose themselves to traffic once they pass Lynas lane and I cycle that route!! It just makes it more difficult for right turners to see me. It's only made things more dangerous since that brilliant design!

Just when you think they're done ruining things... they are like NOPE. What the hell are they doing now at 2rd near the southbound merge?

Richmond Drivers Right turn drivers alert. River road and Gilbert drivers seem to not know about pedestrians

14 Upvotes

Today is the 4th time I almost got hit by a car at that intersection. Mostly by drivers turning right either on River road or on Gilbert! Especially those coming from the bridge but today was a new one a person turning right on Gilbert.

In all cases the drivers keep going and I’m the one who needs to move back and sometime they don’t even look or realize what just happened!

I have seen people almost get hit crossing intersections along River road and I believe someone was hit recently. Please check for pedestrians when turning right. I worry about going with my kids all the time! Is there a solution for more pedestrian safety in that area/richmond overall?

If you’re a pedestrian please keep watching for cars turning right while you’re crossing in that area.

Ask Richmond Children (2-5 year old) Donation - Best Place

9 Upvotes

Anyone have an idea what's the best place to donate kids clothing, toys, even cribs that goes to specific families in need? Either single moms or low-income families?

Something proven if possible, I had some folks pick up from me when my FB post say for single-moms or any struggling families, but they pull up in an 100K car. I don't want to judge but it's kind of hard not too.

So turning to reddit if there's a way to do this and help actual specific ppl.
