British Columbia Highway 15
[6][citation needed] Border crossing times can become significantly delayed such as in the event of certain Seattle Mariners baseball games and summer holiday travel.Highway 15 travels around a commercial district and returns east to its original alignment on 176th Street as it passes Cloverdale's casino and fairgrounds.[19] On December 21, 2013, the C$1 billion South Fraser Perimeter Road opened as part of Highway 17, linking the northern terminus of BC 15 to Delta in the west.[22] A 1.3-mile (2.1 km) expressway to serve the border crossing and connect it with I-5 was planned in the late 1960s to relocate truck traffic from city streets.[29] The Washington State Department of Transportation began reconstruction of SR 543 in May 2006 to expand the highway to five lanes between H Street and the border crossing.The existing truck lane was closed in October 2006 and was rebuilt to separate freight traffic from other vehicles accessing the border crossing and adjacent duty free store.
