Most of the transportation money will likely be allocated towards road improvement projects in South Surrey and Clayton Heights.
How do I read this already? Well I overheard someone on the inside confirm that Phase II of the 105 ave connector will be officially scrapped. A shame as the corridor carried a curb separated bike lane that would have connected Guildford to Central Surrey.
SurreyFirst was a god awful party that was out of touch with the city with regards to LRT but they delivered some nifty bike infrastructure in the city and at least delivered on their promise to better transit infrastructure (new bus shelters).

It's McCallum we're talking here. He tends to act like a mule when it comes to investing on transit infrastructure.
