01Plan the Surrey work area
Describe the work limits, affected side of the road and nearest intersection. Include construction access, loading movements and any pedestrian or cycling space affected by the work. For a project with several separate work locations, identify each location rather than treating the entire job as one closure.
02Traffic Obstruction Permits
Surrey’s Traffic Obstruction Permit guidance explains the application package and traffic control plan requirements. It also describes exceptions for certain minor obstructions on local roads. Check the applicable process for your work instead of assuming every activity requires the same submission.
03Construction and road allowance
Hoarding or construction use of the road allowance can involve both road-use and traffic-obstruction approvals. Review Surrey’s engineering requirements for building permits and share any issued conditions with us. NORTHSTAR can discuss TMP and permit support as part of the project scope.
04Match crews to the work
Arrange traffic control personnel where flagging is needed, or discuss lane closure technicians and trucks for a defined road work zone. Tell us about staging and changing access points so personnel, equipment and supervision can be considered together.
05Keep plans and revisions together
When requesting a quote, tell us whether your plan is new, submitted for review or already accepted. Send the permit number and describe any revision to the work area or schedule. Surrey’s online permit-management functions vary by permit type; use the City’s current instructions for your application.
06Book Surrey traffic control
Provide the site address, work description, proposed dates, shift times and project contact through our quote form. For time-sensitive work, call (604) 217-2915. Dispatch operates 24/7; confirm crew availability and required approvals before the job starts.
