The following is excerpted from a 19 October 2012 news release by Transport Canada.
Construction of the Combo Project, an important investment along the Roberts Bank Rail Corridor (RBRC), was celebrated today by the Honourable Ed Fast, Canada's Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway; the Honourable Mary Polak, B.C. Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure; Mayor Dianne Watts, City of Surrey; Mayor Peter Fassbender, City of Langley; Mayor Jack Froese, Township of Langley; and Robin Silvester, President and CEO of Port Metro Vancouver as well as other stakeholders.
The project involves the construction of rail crossing overpasses at 192nd Street, 54th Avenue and 196th Street in Surrey, B.C., which will increase road capacity while addressing the needs expressed by these communities to reduce delays and mitigate the impacts of increasing commercial traffic. These new road-rail grade separations will enhance rail operations and accommodate anticipated growth in rail and road traffic along the Roberts Bank Rail Corridor.
