The Guinness brewing family built the Lions Gate Bridge, which opened in 1938 to provide access to its British Properties lands in West Vancouver. Ownership was transferred to the Province in 1955. Tolls were removed in 1963, and the bridge was restored in 1998 after a long debate about its heritage value and capacity. Funding for the decorative lighting to celebrate Expo 86 was provided by the Guinness family.
