Remote yard monitoring in Port Coquitlam
Live agents watch Port Coquitlam truck yards, fabrication shops, warehouses and construction sites around the clock, between the Pitt River Bridge and the Port Mann.
Local and live
Along the Mary Hill Bypass and the CPKC yard
Port Coquitlam, a city of about 61,500 people in 2021, grew up around rail and road. CPKC runs a major rail yard in the central part of the city, and the Lougheed Highway passes through it. The Mary Hill Bypass (Highway 7B) follows the Fraser River from the Pitt River Bridge, a seven-lane cable-stayed span opened in October 2009, west to the Port Mann Bridge, where Highway 1 crosses to Surrey. The city's industrial and commercial base includes metal fabrication, high-technology firms and transportation companies.
Statistics Canada data show the Port Coquitlam RCMP recorded 156 break-and-enters in 2025, close to the 157 of the year before, along with 51 motor vehicle thefts and 29 thefts over $5,000. For a fabrication shop or transport yard, one overnight visit can mean lost tools, materials or a work truck, plus the downtime while they're replaced.
Sigma watches yards like these remotely, with no guard on site. Agents have live eyes on every camera 24/7/365, AI detection flags people and vehicles after hours, and the agent verifies each alert on video before talking the intruder down through the speakers. Police, fire services and your contacts are called as needed, and you get the clips and a written report. Transport yards can add Gate Operations, with agents checking each driver and opening the gate remotely.

FAQ
Port Coquitlam monitoring questions
Can you monitor a yard off the Mary Hill Bypass near the Fraser River?
Yes. Any site with power and an internet connection can be watched live. Agents cover the cameras every night, weekend and holiday, and AI detection alerts them to anyone moving around the yard after hours.
Our trucks leave before dawn. Can an agent open the gate for them?
Yes. Gate Operations agents see each driver at the gate, speak with them through the gate speakers, check ID against your rules or schedules and open the gate remotely. Each entry and exit is logged.
