Fraser Surrey Docks Remains Open for Business during the current United Truckers Association (UTA) Withdrawal of Service – Update March 3rd, 2014

To our valued customers and stakeholders,

Please be advised that our terminal is open for business as per normal even though members of the United Truckers Association (UTA) withdrew their services to the Vancouver Gateway on Wednesday February 26^th, 2014.  This withdrawal of services by the UTA has reduced the number of trucks utilizing the Fraser Surrey Docks Container Truck Gate, however the Container Truck Gate and the Fraser Surrey Docks Terminal as a whole remain open and operating, providing service to not only our container customers but also for our Breakbulk, Agri, Project Cargo and Forest Products customers.  Safety and security steps have been taken to ensure that the Container Truck Gate is safely accessible to all container truck traffic wishing to enter/exit the terminal.

We sincerely appreciate your continued support of Fraser Surrey Docks.

These funds will be used to generate in excess of $45,000 worth of goods to be used by low-income individuals and families in need who live in Surrey and North Delta by providing bi-weekly food hampers to supplement their food needs.
