Highway 91A - Queensborough Bridge Upgrades
Last updated on January 30, 2026
The project will rehabilitate the Highway 91A Queensborough Bridge, which crosses the Fraser River in New Westminster.
Traffic impacts
Over the course of the project, the rehab work is expected to require nightly lane closures so the contractor can safely advance work.
- Nighttime lane closures are anticipated between the hours of 9:30 pm and 5 am (8 am on weekends)
- For the duration of the closures, one lane will remain open to traffic in each direction to minimize the traffic impact at night
- Motorists will see some congestion at the start of the evening shift until traffic volumes subside
