Surrey, B.C. – Significant construction is underway along the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain alignment, marking a major step forward in delivering safe, affordable, and convenient transit options for Metro Vancouver residents.
“The Surrey-Langley SkyTrain project is going to transform the transportation experience for people across the region,” said Mike Farnworth, Minister of Transportation and Transit. “From job creation to housing and improved access to services and amenities, the new SkyTrain line will make getting around faster and more affordable for hundreds of thousands of people.”
Early works, including site preparation and utility relocation, began in spring 2024, with major construction activities commencing in November 2024. The project is progressing steadily, with guideway columns now visible at multiple future station sites.
“It was a beautiful day to celebrate progress on the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain,” said Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke. “This project promises to be a transformative development for our city, representing the first major investment in rapid transit in Surrey in over three decades. With Surrey’s population expected to reach one million in the next two decades, improved transit connectivity is essential not only for current residents but also for future generations. I want to thank the federal and provincial governments for their support in bringing this project to life.”
Once complete, the SkyTrain extension will provide a seamless and efficient transportation option, supporting growth and accessibility in the rapidly expanding Surrey-Langley corridor.
