Upcoming Roadworks on Barnet Highway and
Pinetree Way and Lougheed Highway
As part of Evergreen Line construction, permanent road improvements including turning lane restoration, paving,
traffic line painting, electrical and signal work are required at the intersection of Barnet Highway and Pinetree Way
and Lougheed Highway.
Work will begin the week of April 6 and continue intermittently for approximately two months. Paving requires
warm, dry weather conditions, so this work is weather dependent and the schedule is subject to change.
WHAT TO EXPECT

Lane closures on Barnet Highway and Pinetree Way and Lougheed Highway will be implemented during offpeak hours, Monday to Sunday from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. Nighttime work is required due to high volumes of
daytime traffic in the area.

Crews will work intermittently during daytime hours only if required.

Work will start on the northwest corner of Barnet Highway and Pinetree Way then crews will move to the
southwest corner of Barnet Highway and Lougheed Highway. Work will include construction of the
permanent dedicated right-hand turn and a mulit-use path on the west side of Lougheed Highway between
Barnet Highway and the entrance to the West Coast Express passenger pick-up/drop-off area.
