Surrey infrastructure and education projects advance

Infrastructure and educational developments are underway in the Surrey area. The Surrey-Langley SkyTrain project is entering a phase of segment installation on Fraser Highway, east of Highway 15. The Transportation Investment Corporation (TIC) announced that the Clayton Clipper gantry will be installing concrete blocks for the line segment heading toward Clayton Heights. This work will involve overnight and weekend operations from October 18 to mid-November, leading to increased noise and temporary changes to road, sidewalk, and driveway access. Drivers and transit users should expect intermittent traffic stoppages of up to two minutes during loading operations.

Separately, Crescent Heights Academy has broken ground on a new 120,000 square-foot K-12 facility in Cloverdale. Located south of Highway 10, the new four-storey building aims to consolidate the academy’s three existing campuses into a single location. The project includes dedicated spaces for various age groups, athletic fields, and underground parking. The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke and other local dignitaries.
