The City of Richmond will begin extensive upgrades to the intersection of Cambie Road and No. 5 Road beginning Wednesday, July 17. It is scheduled to be complete by the end of 2024.

The construction will result in the following impacts:

  • No left turns will be allowed at the intersection
  • Sections of the inside lanes along both No. 5 Road and Cambie Road will be closed
  • Traffic control measures will be in place to ensure safe passage of pedestrian, cyclist and vehicle traffic

Hours of work will be from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on

Saturdays when required.

To minimize traffic buildup and delays, it is recommended drivers plan trips accordingly and use alternate routes.

The improvement work includes:

  • Construction of dedicated left turn lanes and left turn signals in all four directions of the intersection
  • Road widening
  • Concrete sidewalks and asphalt multi-use pathways
  • Installation of concrete curbs and gutters
  • Street lights and traffic signal works
