Port Mann/ Highway 1
Improvement Project
Vancouver, British Columbia
Project Objectives
Reduce congestion at entry and exit points to
Highway 1;
Reduce travel times for trips across the corridor
and improve connections within and between
communities;
Improve access to and egress from the corridor
for goods movement;
Facilitate the introduction of transit service along
the corridor and the improvement of transit
service across the corridor;
Expand HOV, cycling and pedestrian networks
along or in the vicinity of the corridor
Improve safety for vehicle operators and
passengers, cyclists and pedestrians.
