It’s update time!

More BC Parkway renovations have been completed!

Here’s a quick look at what’s been improved:

• Wayfinding signs along the whole 26 kilometre length that include destinations and distances
• Lighting, crossing safety and accessibility improvements in key areas
• Pavement rehabilitation of approximately 2.6 kilometres in particularly rough segments

BC Parkway is an important facility for pedestrians, cyclists and wheelchair users in the region.

The path connects Surrey City Centre, New Westminster, South Burnaby and Vancouver and provides a facility for walking and wheeling around the area.

Continual improvements to the facility help keep the parkway in good condition and increase the safety and accessibility of the path while allowing users to get around with greater ease.

Make sure to read our past BC Parkway posts to see the progress with these improvements. See you on the parkway!
