A new vision for East Abbotsford is taking shape – one that will benefit Sumas Mountain locals and their Abbotsford neighbours alike with improved transportation networks for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.
Spearheaded by Mann Group, the $14-million project extends a critical one-mile stretch of Marshall Road on Sumas Mountain in East Abbotsford, and includes extensive roadworks and civil engineering efforts that reshape the future of transport for Abbotsford residents and visitors.
“Our commitment goes beyond just building roads; it’s about crafting a future that enhances the quality of life for not only Grovemont residents, but the community as a whole.” says Inder Mann, President & CEO of Mann Group, noting the development not only improves transportation but also stimulates economic growth, creating job opportunities and supporting local businesses.
Marshall road corridor
The Marshall Road Corridor improvement plan will ease community access in and around Abbotsford, with features that include pedestrian-friendly sidewalks, crosswalks, a bi-directional cycling path and improved transit routes.
The new road will link the east to the west to Sumas Way (Highway 11), Old Yale Road, Whatcom Road and Marshall Road.
Project connects the community
Grovemont, an executive townhome community located on Sumas Mountain, will immensely benefit from this new connection, with homeowners enjoying reduced commute times.
Grovemont is under construction by Mann Group, and seeks to redefine modern living. The home follows and advanced steel-frame building technology for enhanced safety and cost efficiency for homeowners.
The thoughtful designs maximize breathtaking views of Sumas Valley, Mt. Baker and the Gulf Islands, providing a tranquil natural backdrop to daily life.
Additionally, the townhome development seeks to promote social wellness through amenities like a central courtyard with leisure facilities,such as a bocce courts, and outdoor fitness equipment, a children’s playground and a meditation garden, all surrounded by colour-changing hydrangea blooms and native flora.
“The homes and amenities at Grovemont will support community building and enhance property values in one of Fraser Valley’s most desirable locations,” Mann says.
