McCallum Road and Highway 1 interchange upgrade coming soon

Upgrading is underway for the interchange at McCallum Road and Highway 1. The upgrade plans include more lanes over Highway 1, longer deceleration on both sides of the highway and changes to the traffic pattern to ensure that peak volume traffic does not back up onto the highway. Bike lanes and sidewalks are also included in the plans, along with a new park-and-ride lot to encourage car pooling. Total project cost is estimated at $25 million shared by Government of Canada ($8.3 million), Government of British Columbia ($8.3 million), City of Abbotsford ($8.3 million). Construction is expected to be running from Spring 2010 – Spring 2011.

Existing interchange was built in 1960 as part of Highway 1 freeway project. Current traffic volume exceeds the capacity of this 50 year old bridge.

Similar plans were announced for improvements to the Clearbrook Road Interchange but that project seems to be on the back burner for now.

Google Street View In Abbotsford

Yesterday (or was it day before) Google finally launched the "street view" feature in Google Maps in Major cities across Canada including Abbotsford. This is really going to be a cool tool for REALTORS® & people searching for homes. You can check out the neighborhood on your computer screen before deciding whether you want to see homes in the area. I have already added this feature to my website. When you click on Map, you have the option the see the street view.

So go ahead and virtually drive around in the neighborhood before you call to book the showing
