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).

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or road:
“The Bostonians are really, as a race, far inferior in point of anything beyond mere intellect to any other set upon the continent of North America. They are decidedly the most servile imitators of the English it is possible to conceive.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
“Evil can be got very easily and exists in quantity: the road to her is very smooth, and she lives near by. But between us and virtue the gods have placed the sweat of our brows; the road to her is long and steep, and it is rough at first; but when a man has reached the top, then she is easy to attain, although before she was hard.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
