Surrey Council to Vote on Contract for 56 New Speed Bumps Near Schools and Parks

The City of Surrey is moving ahead with plans to install 56 new speed bumps near schools and parks as part of efforts to improve safety for children and pedestrians. Surrey City Council is scheduled to vote Monday on a contract to carry out the project.

According to the council agenda, the project will be funded through the City's 2026 transportation budget. If approved, installation is expected to begin later this month, with work targeted for completion by the end of September ahead of the new school year.

The proposed construction schedule would allow work to take place Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. The initiative is part of Surrey's Vision Zero road safety program, which aims to reduce traffic-related deaths and serious injuries.

The project follows an earlier phase approved in March, when council authorized the installation of 73 speed bumps in school and park zones across the city. According to the City of Surrey, that work has already been completed.
