The team that will design and build the tracks for the Surrey Langley SkyTrain extension has been selected by the provincial government.
Transit Integrators BC, a team that includes AtkinsRéalis Major Projects, AtkinsRéalis Canada, and Western Pacific Enterprises, will design and build the trackwork and associated systems for the 16-kilometre extension that will bring the line from King George all the way down Fraser Highway to Langley City.
Over the past few months, the province has been announcing the selection of companies to do a number of projects, including building stations and the concrete guideway itself.
Early work on the project, which is scheduled to finish and open in 2028, has already begun, including relocating power lines.
Fraser Highway will be busy over the next several years, as work crews will be starting major construction later this year.
Once complete, the system will allow people to travel from Langley City to Surrey in about 22 minutes, and from Langley to Vancouver in just over an hour.
There will be two stations in Langley, one on Fraser Highway near Willowbrook Drive, and one at the new terminus location, on 203rd Street at Industrial Avenue, just off Fraser.
