On the station
As of 10:31 pm Pacific, Monday 12 October, Vancouver604 reports: Nothing to worry about on these: We're seeing it all moving nicely out there - Highway 99 along the Sea-to-Sky north is running freely, the Alex Fraser Bridge and the George Massey Tunnel are both moving at speed, and it's the same story on the Lions Gate Bridge and the Port Mann Bridge.
One tap plays the newest update. CarPlay and Android Auto friendly, so you keep both hands on the wheel.
Maps is very good at one thing: getting you from here to there. Keep using it. It will route you around a jam better than we will.
What it will not do is tell you there is a stalled truck in the Cassiar, that the closure on Highway 1 runs until Friday, or that the Canucks won. It routes you; it does not brief you. And you cannot listen to a map.
Vancouver604 is a radio station. Press play, the traffic starts in your zone, then news, sports and scores. It plays in CarPlay while Maps navigates. The reports come from drivers who are actually out there.
On-demand traffic, news, and sports. Fresh every 15 minutes.
Not a station. No hourly wait, no talk break to sit through.
Press play, hear what's happening on your route, and go.

Here is your overnight news update from Vancouver604, recapping Monday's top stories.
This afternoon, a look at what's driving voters ahead of municipal elections on October 17th. Six B.C. communities head to the polls, and the top issue changes depending on where you live. Vancouver residents point to cost of living. In Surrey, it's public safety, with people flagging street disorder, extortion and gang activity. Coquitlam voters are focused on traffic and worries over highrise development. Delta residents raise concerns about Bill 44 and the emergency room at Delta Hospital. And in New Westminster, public safety and taxes top the list, with calls to clean up Columbia Street.
Vancouver just wrapped its busiest cruise season ever. The Norwegian Encore pulled into Canada Place Monday, the last ship of the year, capping a run that saw one point four million passengers come through between February and October. That's three hundred fifty eight ship visits, both numbers up twenty per cent from last year. The Port of Vancouver says the season pumped more than a billion dollars into the local economy, with three quarters of passengers sticking around the city before or after their cruise. Port officials expect the growth to keep going into 2027.
This morning, residents of a New Westminster apartment building are trying to figure out what comes next. A fire tore through the three storey building at 37 Agnes Street early Sunday, collapsing the roof over the top floor. All twenty four units are gone. Everyone got out safely, though some cats are still missing. The province is covering three nights of hotel stays plus food and clothing. Strata council president Jason Hamelin says rebuilding could take years, and the building housed seniors, people with mobility issues and families with kids. A GoFundMe has been set up to help displaced tenants.
A fire at a New Westminster apartment building sent two dozen people out of their homes Sunday afternoon. It broke out before dawn Sunday, starting on a third-floor balcony of the three-storey complex on Agnes Street. All 24 residents got out safely. New Westminster Police say the fire was not suspicious, though several units inside the building were damaged.
And this morning, a reminder that Vancouver's civic election wraps up Saturday, October 17th. Voters will choose among five mayoral candidates and seven parties on the ballot.
This afternoon, Stelco is pushing back against the federal government. Ottawa has threatened to take the steelmaker to court, accusing it of breaking the terms of its agreement with the feds over layoffs. Stelco says that's simply not true. The company says it did not breach the deal and is ready to fight the claim in court if it has to.
Advance voting got underway this morning for Alberta's referendum, which asks voters nine separate questions. Premier Danielle Smith is urging Albertans to vote yes on all nine. She says a strong yes result would give her more leverage when she sits down with the federal government to negotiate.
This afternoon, Montreal is among the cities showing support for a youth protest movement in India calling itself the Cockroach movement. It gained momentum after election officials there revised voter lists last year, striking more than one hundred thirty million people from the rolls. Supporters say what started as a joke has turned into a broader call for change.
Sunday morning, demonstrators rallied against Bill 137, saying the law has left schools and other spaces unsafe for LGBTQ youth.
This morning, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham says Iran's Revolutionary Guard almost certainly directed a security breach at a U.S. air base. He made the statement on Monday.
This morning, the Nobel Memorial Prize in economics went to two American economists, recognized for their work on handling economic shocks. The announcement came Monday.
This morning, word that Pope Leo the Fourteenth is set for surgery this week to remove a lung nodule. It was caught at a very early stage.
Sunday evening, we're learning more about a police shooting in Burnaby. RCMP say officers responded to a disturbance at a home on Kingsway Avenue Sunday morning, arriving around 10:15. Police say a man came at them with an edged weapon, and one officer opened fire, hitting him. He got emergency treatment at the scene before being taken to hospital. Nobody else was hurt. The Independent Investigations Office is now looking into the shooting.

Recapping Monday's sports news.
Jake DeBrusk is quietly building a case for himself. The Canucks left winger scored his third goal of the season yesterday afternoon in New York, part of a sixteen-shot stretch over five games despite missing two with illness. He carries a no-movement clause this year and turns thirty on Saturday.
The Giants keep their blueline depth intact. Vancouver defenceman Rhys Pederson has cleared overage waivers in the WHL. Pederson, born in 2006, remains with the club as it shapes its roster for the season ahead.
The league has come down on New Jersey's Evan Rodriques. The NHL has fined him five thousand dollars, the maximum allowed, for a high stick on Canucks centre Marco Rossi. It happened with ten seconds left in the second period of the Devils' win over Vancouver on Saturday, drawing a double-minor at the time. Canucks coach Manny Malhotra says he disagrees with the league's ruling.
The Canucks wrap up a back-to-back Sunday in New York against the Rangers, after their penalty kill cracked wide open against New Jersey on Saturday. Vancouver has now allowed six straight power-play goals over its last two games. Thatcher Demko remains out recovering from hip surgery, and Filip Chytil is sidelined with a shoulder issue. Elias Pettersson leads Vancouver with eight points this season. The Rangers will be without starting goalie Igor Shesterkin for the year after a serious leg injury, and backup Joonas Korpisalo is also out.
The Whitecaps have punched their ticket to the playoffs. Vancouver clinched a postseason spot after Oliver Larraz's first-half goal held up for a draw at LAFC on Saturday, with Denis Bouanga answering late on a header. Coach Jesper Sorensen says a full-strength match would have tilted Vancouver's way. The club now looks to Wednesday against St. Louis, sitting four points clear, but Sam Adekugbe and Thomas Müller are both dealing with hamstring issues.
Toronto's captain is getting league-wide recognition. Auston Matthews has been named the NHL's first star of the week. The Maple Leafs lean on him to lead, and the league says this week he was the best of the best.
Canadiens goaltender Jacob Fowler was perfect between the pipes on Saturday. He turned away all six shooters he faced as Montreal edged Detroit one-nothing in the shootout. A strong night for the young netminder in net.
