No, the causeway was constructed to get the vehicles across to a bar from which gravel was being extracted. In effect, this gravel is being taken out for aggregate.
The aggregate companies are very anxious to get their hands on as much gravel as possible in the eastern Fraser Valley, because of the extreme development that's going on there now. Ten or fifteen years ago, there was not the push for this from the development industry. Aggregate companies are more than happy to take out whatever gravel they can handle economically.
In this particular case, it was not economical to simply put in a large conveyor belt, as I showed in one picture. So the provincial government, through Land and Water B.C. and the provincial emergency program, said, hey, we'll give you $150,000, and you can build this causeway that will get your gravel trucks across to the site where gravel removal was going to take place.
