Mt. Lehman Road to Highway 11 (Phase 3B)

This phase of the Fraser Valley Highway 1 Corridor Improvement Program involves improvements to 8 km of Highway 1 from Mt. Lehman Road to Highway 11. It is currently in procurement and detailed design.

These improvements include:

• Adding HOV/EV lanes and bus-on-shoulder lanes in each direction
• Extending the existing westbound truck climbing lane between Highway 11 and west of McCallum Road
• Adding a multi-use path (MUP) on the south side of Highway 1 between McCallum Road and Salton Road and from King Road to the Highway 11 Interchange
• Replacing the Peardonville Road underpass with a new structure
• Improving active transportation connections at Peardonville Road, McCallum Road and the Highway 11 Interchange
• Replacing the Highway 11 Interchange

Objectives

These improvements are designed to:

• Reduce Highway 1 congestion
• Eliminate low clearance issues for commercial vehicles on the corridor
• Improve safety and capacity at high-traffic intersections
• Improve access to affordable and sustainable modes of transportation, including buses, ridesharing, walking, biking, and rolling
• Support CleanBC through HOV/EV lanes
• Support increased use of Highway 1 transit services by improving transit travel times and reliability
• Facilitate efficient goods movement through the corridor

Project Cost

The Province of B.C. is funding these $2.65 billion improvements.
