Welcome to Summer 2012!!
Over the past several years the Fraser Heights Community Association has consulted with the City of Surrey re the need for a traffic light at the intersection of 104th/168 Sts. The volume of traffic as well as the number of cyclists and pedestrians has increased dramatically in that area.
Last week reconstruction signs were posted. However, we understand there has been no consultation with the residents living closest to the construction area of the full extent of the changes being made in this area that may temporaily affect their residence.
We have contacted the city to confirm and would like to inform all Fraser Heights residents that the long awaited traffic light, in addition to new curbs and gutters are now being installed. The projected completion date is August 13th. Just in time for back to school.
We realize this additional project may slow the traffic at times in this area. But we know it be will shorter-lived than the other construction issues we have been dealing with for the past few years.
From the feedback we had this past week, residents are happy to see this light finally being placed at this intersection.
Our utmost concern is for the safety and security of all our residents. We urge you to drive with care (and patience) throughout Fraser Heights as the other entrance and exit points continue in construction.
Look forward to seeing you all at our next meeting on September 18th at Fraser Heights Senior Secondary .
A big thank you to all the residents who have volunteered their time in committee meetings over the years to see this light installed.
