$7.8M in road improvements underway on 32 Avenue

Surrey, BC – The City of Surrey has begun $7.8M in road improvements to 32 Avenue from 184 to 188 Streets to improve traffic flow, prepare for future growth, and increase road safety for all users. Road improvements on 32 Avenue include repaving and widening the road from two to four travel lanes, a new traffic signal and pedestrian crossing at 188 Street, and a multiuse path on the south side of the street to make it safer to cycle and walk. This is the first of two phases of work along 32 Avenue.

“Roadworks along 32 Avenue mark the beginning of a significant investment in our transportation infrastructure in Campbell Heights,” said Mayor Brenda Locke. “This $7.8M project will not only improve traffic flow and road safety, but also lay the foundation for future growth and development in our community. This critical investment will create multimodal infrastructure that benefits all users of our roads on 32 Avenue from Highway 15 to 196 Street. I would like to thank TransLink for their contribution toward this important project."

TransLink is contributing $4.3M towards the road improvements through its Local Government Funding Program, with the rest coming from the City of Surrey’s 2024 Transportation and Utilities Budget.

“These improvements to 32nd Avenue will make it easier for Surrey residents to walk, cycle or take transit in their community,” said TransLink CEO Kevin Quinn. “TransLink is proud to contribute investments to local infrastructure through our Local Government Funding Program, but funding for this program is running out. TransLink is fighting for a sustainable funding solution so that we can continue to invest in infrastructure projects like this one.”

The first phase of work on 32 Avenue from 184 Street to 188 Street is expected to be completed in 2025, followed by Phase 2 from 176 Street to 184 Street which is anticipated to be completed in 2026.
