So it's essentially just a six lane freeway through Delta and Richmond and still a puny pathetic 4 lane freeway through Surrey. Doesn't scream super highway to me. Highway 1 through Burnaby and Coquitlam is a super highway in my eyes.

City of Richmond Malcolm Brodie has been quoted in the media as saying the Steveston Interchange is far worse than anything they have in Los Angeles, he has been down there, he knows hes seen it firsthand. He is a self proclaimed expert on the subject. He noted that Steveston Highway cannot be freeflowing, something has to stop the traffic from pouring into richmond.
But to directly answer your question, in the minds of all these protestors, anything more than four lanes, with raised pavement markers, jersey barriers, and overhead signage gantry is classified as a superhighway in BC.
