Traffic patterns change on 264th Street as Highway 1 improvements advance

Starting March 15, 2025, the northeast and southwest loop ramps onto Highway 1 from 264th Street will be permanently closed as part of a significant construction project aimed at improving traffic flow in the Fraser Valley. Drivers heading westbound to Vancouver will be redirected to an improved intersection on the north side, while those traveling eastbound to Hope will turn left at the south side intersection. This project is a crucial element of the Fraser Valley Highway 1 Corridor Improvement Program, designed to alleviate congestion caused by high traffic volumes, particularly from commercial vehicles. The new interchange will enhance not only the movement of goods but also provide improvements for active transportation and public transit options, reflecting a commitment to sustainable infrastructure. Road users are reminded to adhere to all signage and be vigilant for the presence of construction workers.

Updates regarding the project will be available on DriveBC, ensuring that drivers are kept informed. This initiative is expected to positively impact the local community by facilitating smoother traffic flow and supporting economic activity.
