C74 rerouted due to work on Highway 1
C74 rerouted due to work on Highway 1
Oops — here’s a reroute notice for the C74 that I missed posting on Monday. It did go out to the media and was posted on our website though, so hopefully the word has been spread far and wide.
Due to the closure of the 152nd St. Overpass on Hwy 1, the C74 Fraser Heights/Guildford/Surrey Central Community Shuttle bus in Surrey will be re-routed indefinitely.
As of Monday, March 8, the bus no longer travels along 110th Ave between 156th St. and 152nd St.
Instead, the shuttle will use the 156th St. underpass both ways. The eastbound trip will use 108th Ave to 160th St., then turn on 104th and resume its “old” route.
The westbound trip will only go as far as 110th Ave. & 156th St., then turn south and take the underpass again to 104th Ave (on the south side of the freeway, near Guildford).
When the 160th Street Interchange has been completed and traffic patterns have been established, this route will be reviewed again.
This also means that one of Vancouver’s best shortcuts, is about to get cut.
No more cutting through Fraser Heights via 176 and Barnston to jump the queue for the bridge. The end result, however, when the bridge is built, is going to be much better than rat running through Fraser Heights!
