Consultation has concluded

The City of Abbotsford recently introduced the new Street and Traffic Bylaw, 2021. As part of this process, existing and future commercial truck routes within the City boundaries were reviewed. The goal is to improve access to commercial and industrial areas within the City boundaries and to limit the impacts on residential areas and local neighbourhood traffic.

In the 2018 Transportation & Transit Master Plan the City identified that an effective truck route network is an essential component as the movement of goods is critical for the economic wellbeing of the City. The proposed changes include consideration of the existing truck routes in Langley and Chilliwack to ensure the entire goods movement system is efficient and avoids circuitous routes throughout the region.

Proposed changes to the City's truck network include:

  • Removing a portion of King Road from the designated truck network between McCallum Road and Riverside Drive in conjunction with the U District Neighbourhood Plan
  • Adding a new segment to the designated truck network on McCallum Road between King Road and Huntingdon Road.
  • Adding a new segment to the designated truck network on Whatcom Road between Highway 1 and Vye Road.
  • Adding a new segment to the designated truck network on Foy Street between Marshall Road and King Road.
