Update: February 19, 2026

Starting at approximately 6 a.m. on Thursday, February 26, Fraser Crossing Partners will begin a local closure of Columbia Street between McBride Boulevard and Elliot Street. The closure will facilitate the removal of a section of the Pattullo Bridge over Columbia Street and the start of the construction of the new Columbia on-ramp and East Columbia multi-use path overpass. This work requires the following traffic changes:

1. Closure of the existing Columbia Street loop-ramp to the Pattullo Bridge – in effect
2. A local closure of Columbia Street between McBride Boulevard and Elliot Street for approximately four to six weeks – starting February 26, 2026

• ​Drivers will be detoured to Royal Avenue or Front Street. Columbia Street west of Elliot Street will remain open and access to all businesses on Columbia Street and Front Street Mews will be maintained at all times.
• Drivers wishing to access the stal̕əw̓asəm Bridge from East Columbia can use Front Street.
• Commerical vehicles will be detoured to designated truck routes at all times.

The Pattullo Bridge is a key connection between the communities of Surrey and New Westminster. The new toll-free four-lane bridge will provide important improvements for everyone using the bridge, including people who are driving, cycling or walking, as well as communities on either side of the bridge.
