City of Surrey's 2024-2028 Financial Plan

BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

MAJOR INDUSTRIAL AREAS Surrey’s industrial areas offer a strategic location with access to Metro Vancouver, the United States, and Asia-Pacific markets. Six major highways, three railways, the Fraser Surrey Docks deep-water port, and SkyTrain rapid transit, provide efficient movement of goods and people. Port Kells Port Kells, a well-established industrial area with nearly 500 businesses, is strategically located in the north-east region of Surrey giving direct access to major highways including Highway 15 going south to the U.S.A border, Highway 1 as the primary east/ west trucking route, and the South Fraser Perimeter Road (Highway 17) going west to key transportation hubs like Fraser Surrey Docks, Delta Port, and major cross-city bridges in Metro Vancouver. Adjacent development of the Anniedale-Tynehead neighbourhood will increase land availability and talent access with growth in industrial, commercial, and residential development opportunities.

Newton Newton has a concentration of light and heavy industrial manufacturing businesses, home to approximately 6,600 businesses. Divided into Newton West, Newton East and Panorama Ridge, this community is served by major transportation routes including Scott Road, King George Boulevard and Highway 10.
