Work has resumed at a major Burnaby development project after concerns a worker on site had fallen ill with coronavirus last week.
Construction activities at the City of Lougheed project at Austin Avenue and North Road were put on hold Friday because a worker at the site presented with a fever Thursday, according to ITC Construction Group communications director Meenu Bakshi.
The worker received medical attention and his case was referred to public health officials, according to Bakshi.
ITC has since gotten confirmation from medical authorities that the worker does not have the deadly virus, she said.
鈥淭he聽worker聽is聽safely聽resting聽at聽home聽and聽the聽project聽site聽is fully聽operational,鈥� she said.
The City of Lougheed is a massive master plan for the Lougheed mall area, starting with four towers, a 1.03-million square-foot parkade and 117,000 square feet of commercial space being built by ITC.
