New Pattullo Bridge Project

The Pattullo Bridge is an important link over the Fraser River. Opened in 1937 with a design life of 50 years, the bridge helped encourage growth in Surrey and New Westminster. 75 years later, TransLink is leading a project to replace this aging bridge. The bridge does not meet current road and seismic design guidelines.

TransLink has funded some upgrades to keep the Pattullo as functional as possible for another 10 years, but planning for a new bridge has begun. The target is to have the new bridge opened in 2018.

Public consultation was held from Februrary 21 to March 9, 2012 and included community workshops, an online questionnaire and a webinar. Read about the feedback we got on our What We Heard page.

You can still learn more about the project and the replacement factors and bridge location and connection options. We'll be back out in spring 2012 to gather more input from the public, so stay tuned!
