North Fraser Perimeter Road
As a scope of the Ministry of Transportation's Metro Vancouver Gateway Program, existing roads around the north side of the Fraser River will be improved to create a direct connection between New Westminster and Maple Ridge. This project is known as the North Fraser Perimeter Road, and includes the upgrading of intersections and possibly, construction of interchanges along the Mary Hill Bypass. This project also includes the construction of an interchange at the Mary Hill Bypass and Highway 7 at its eastern terminus and the construction of a new, cable-stayed Pitt River Bridge consisting of 7 lanes (3 westbound, 4 eastbound).
