The trucks will then move south along Marine Avenue, turn left onto Alberni Street, and finish the transport at the old Inn at the Westview site, where the units will be stored.

There will be three vehicles involved in the haul, including trucks ahead and behind the flatbed, which carries one of the ATCO trailers.
