Fraser Valley Integrated Transportation Planning Study

We are developing a shared vision for integrated transportation in the Fraser Valley.

The Fraser Valley is experiencing rapid growth and rising congestion. This is resulting in increasing pressure on development, transportation infrastructure and housing. We are collaborating with cross ministry partners, local governments, transportation agencies and First Nations to develop a shared vision for integrated transportation.

Vision process objectives

The work that results from this process will provide recommendations on next steps and help inform future integrated planning in the region.

This planning process also aligns with the vision and goals of:

• Planning Together BC
• CleanBC
• Goods Movement Action Plan

This planning process will incorporate and be informed by local and regional planning and projects like:

• Fraser Valley Regional Growth Strategy
• Fraser Valley Highway 1 Corridor Improvement Program
• South Mission Integrated Transportation Strategy

Timeline

The visioning process began in Fall 2023 and is expected to complete Winter 2024.

• Phase 1 - Technical work (Fall/Winter 2023/2024)
• Phase 2 - Engagement (Spring/Summer 2024)
• Phase 3 - Recommendations and path forward (Fall/Winter 2024)

Engagement

The project is committed to engaging and working collaboratively with local First Nation communities, local governments, and transportation agencies. Input provided by First Nation and local government partners and other key stakeholders will provide an understanding of the region’s perspective of how the project can support economic growth, access to services, sustainable transportation options, climate action and affordability in the area.
