Surrey–Langley SkyTrain Extension: Major Work Begins
A New Chapter for Metro Vancouver Transit
Big changes are coming to the way people move in Metro Vancouver. Construction crews have officially started work on the much-anticipated Surrey–Langley SkyTrain extension. This huge project promises to reshape how residents commute, connect, and explore the region.
What’s Happening on the Ground?
The 16-kilometre expansion stretches from King George Station all the way to Langley. Along the route, eight brand-new stations will spring up, offering direct access to more neighborhoods and making daily life easier for thousands of people. With shovels now in the ground, the project is full steam ahead—and the finish line is in sight for 2029.
Why This Project Matters
This isn’t just about new train tracks. The Surrey–Langley SkyTrain extension is set to cut travel times, reduce traffic congestion, and lower greenhouse gas emissions. For families, students, and workers, it means more options and less stress getting around. Plus, the new stations will spark growth in local businesses and communities along the way.
What to Expect in the Years Ahead
Over the next few years, residents can expect to see construction zones, road closures, and plenty of progress. While there may be some short-term disruptions, the long-term benefits are clear: a faster, greener, and more connected Metro Vancouver.
Bottom Line
The Surrey–Langley SkyTrain extension is more than just a transit project—it’s a promise of a brighter, more connected future. With construction now underway, the countdown to 2029 has begun, and the excitement is building for what’s ahead.
