CHILLIWACK – The City of Chilliwack says the Knight Road project in which an active transportation pathway was constructed on the south side of the road during the past year is essentially complete.

On its website, the city says multi-use pathway on the south side of Knight Road east of Vedder Road is now paved and protected by a grassed and treelined boulevard, and is ready to use. The road itself has been freshly paved with new line markings, but is also remarkably narrower for motorists.

The city says the Knight Road multi-use pathway project was tendered under the 2025 Active Transportation Upgrades. The city said the new pathway was a necessary arterial to connect the Valley Rail Trail over to Chilliwack River Road in order to create a safe section of road for active transportation users, including cyclists and pedestrians.

This project consisted of the following public works improvements:
