Plans for Surrey Langley SkyTrain have taken another step forward with the selection of a preferred proponent team to design and build eight new stations for the project, including cycling and walking paths around the new stations.

Elementary school students throughout British Columbia will be safer cyclists after taking part in the fifth year of the Everyone Rides Grade 4-5 program.

People will have more opportunities to enjoy multi-use pathways, protected bike lanes, pedestrian bridges and safety improvements as local, regional and Indigenous governments expand their active transportation infrastructure.

People travelling Highway 95 in Golden will benefit from new wider and climate-resilient bridges crossing the Kicking Horse River.

Following a competitive procurement process, the Province has selected a preferred proponent team to design, build and finance the elevated guideway and associated roadworks, utilities and active transportation elements of the Surrey Langley SkyTrain.

People will see improvements to regional travel and transit reliability with major upgrades to Highway 1 between 216th and 264th streets.

Consulting engineers have been honoured for their work to improve transportation in British Columbia, from rehabilitating a 100-year-old bridge in Terrace to building back better a critical piece of Vancouver Island highway.
