Roberts Bank Rail Corridor

The Roberts Bank Rail Corridor (RBRC) is an important 70-kilometre stretch connecting Canada’s largest container facility and a major coal terminal at Roberts Bank with the North American rail network. It carries increasing volumes of international freight through the communities of Delta, Surrey, Langley City and Langley Township.

About 388,000 vehicles cross the tracks per day, and this number is estimated to increase to 560,000 vehicles per day by 2021. With future increases in both train traffic and vehicle traffic, the existing at-grade rail crossings present a major challenge for the surrounding communities.

Following completion of the 2007 Roberts Bank Rail Corridor: Road/Rail Interface Study, nine grade separations in Delta, Surrey, and the City and Township of Langley have been identified for implementation by 2014.
