Surrey Newton LRT

UPDATE – Nov, 06, 2018: In light of the resolution passed by the City of Surrey council we are pausing work on the Surrey-Newton-Guildford LRT Project and suspending the RFQ process while we await direction from the Mayors’ Council and the TransLink Board. Read the full statement from TransLink CEO Kevin Desmond here.

Curious about the plans for the Surrey-Newton-Guildford Light Rail Transit (LRT) line? You’re invited to attend an upcoming open house to learn more about Surrey LRT and share your thoughts.

On June 13, we’re kicking off the next round of consultation, in partnership with the City of Surrey. You may remember that back in January 2017 we launched the first phase of consultation and we heard from more than 500 people at in-person events and 4,000 people through our online survey and feedback forms. Now it’s your turn!

What is the Surrey LRT project?

Phase One of South of Fraser Rapid Transit (aka Surrey LRT) will introduce modern, street-oriented rapid transit along King George Boulevard and 104 Avenue, connecting Surrey City Centre, Newton Town Centre and Guildford Town Centre.

We want you to weigh in on features of the new LRT and the overall project through an online survey and three drop-in open houses!
