These cement markers, at one point where painted a
bright yellow, ticked off mile after mile of Fraser Highway,
reminding people how far they had come, and warning them how far
they had to go. But time and development soon took over, and the
cement mile markers were lost - their purpose no longer useful.
Those that still stand are now grey in colour, their paint faded,
some taken over by bush, or sunken into ditches. The markers were
originally put in place when the highway was built in 1931. Mile
zero was the main post office in Vancouver. The measurements ran
east, along Kingsway and eventually crossed the Fraser River. The
first post was installed,on the south side of the river,no sign of
any surviving markers in Surrey. Just the five markers from mile 30
to 35 have been located. Mile Marker 35 is in
Aldergrove.
