TransLink and the City of Surrey are looking for your input on the Surrey-Newton-Guildford Light Rail Transit (LRT) project through an online survey and upcoming workshops.
The Surrey-Newton-Guildford LRT project is the first of two phases in the South of Fraser Rapid Transit Network and will introduce modern, street-level light rail transit along King George Boulevard and 104 Avenue, connecting Surrey City Centre, Guildford, and Newton with high-quality rapid transit. The project will be the first light rail transit system in BC.
The Surrey-Newton-Guildford LRT includes:
- 10 km of a two-way street-level track
- 11 LRT stops (from 72 Avenue to Surrey Central along King George Boulevard and from Surrey Central to 152 Street along 104 Avenue)
- a new LRT operations and maintenance facility
Construction and commissioning of this phase of the LRT is expected to take three to five years. Phase two of the LRT (from Surrey-Langley) will be constructed approximately five years after the Surrey-Newton-Guildford LRT.
The City of Surrey and TransLink are seeking input on:
- LRT operations
- LRT stop design and features
- roadway and transit integration
- environmental interests
Attend one of the following Surrey-Newton-Guildford LRT open houses:
Thursday, June 22 3 pm to 7 pm Surrey City Hall Atrium 13450 104 Avenue |
Thursday, June 29 4 pm to 8 pm Peoples Church 14455 104 Avenue |
