CANADA, August 14 - Drivers are advised to expect overnight traffic-pattern changes when travelling Highway 1 eastbound at Mount Lehman Road, starting as early as Monday, Aug. 17, 2026.
As work progresses to widen Highway 1 through the Fraser Valley, this detour is necessary to allow crews to install girders for the expanded Mount Lehman structure, a key component of the Fraser Valley Highway 1 corridor improvement.
During the detour, eastbound traffic will cross over to flow in both directions in the westbound lanes (one lane in each direction). The southbound off-ramp at Mount Lehman Road will remain open, while northbound Mount Lehman Road and eastbound Fraser Highway traffic will have detours available. On-ramp access is unaffected.
The detour will be in place on multiple nights from Aug. 17-29, from 9 p.m. until 5:30 a.m., Sunday through Thursday, and 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
Drivers are reminded to use caution, obey signage and watch for roadside workers. Allow additional travel time through the area when diversions are underway.
