Pile driving on Langley’s Industrial Avenue for SkyTrain starts Thursday
Published 11:40 am Wednesday, May 13, 2026
Pile driving starts Thursday, May 14, along Langley’s Industrial Avenue as work continues on the pylons for the new SkyTrain extension.
The Surrey-Langley SkyTrain Project announced that construction of the elevated guideway is to start on the stretch between 203 Street and 200 Street.
Pile driving is expected to take place intermittently for the rest of the year and into early 2027.
Crews are to start at 200 Street and work east.
The project announcement noted that pile driving can increase noise and cause vibrations, cause light fixtures to sway, and create movement in a glas of water.
This will be the second major pile driving project in the area, following similar work for the construction of the final station at 203 Street.
Major construction will take place from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday to Saturday, and there may be intermittent welding overnight, as well as on Sundays and holidays.
Traffic on Industrial Avenue will continue to be limited to eastbound only, and part of the northbound lane of 200 Street near Industrial Avenue will be closed from mid-May for up to a month.
Pedestrians and cyclists will be limited to the north side of Industrial Avenue only.
Businesses along the route will still be open during construction.
The $6-billion Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension will add 16 kilometres and eight stations to the transit network, and is expected to be completed in 2029. Construction has already impacted traffic around the route since last year.
