Large industrial project on Mt. Lehman Road in Abbotsford nears final approval

Posted on January 29, 2021

A proposed new large industrial project along Mt. Lehman Road will be a “catalyst” for economic development in Abbotsford and the region, a representative for the developers told city council on Monday (Jan. 25).

City council unanimously approved third reading of four bylaw amendments to allow the project to proceed on land at 3407, 3459, 3481 and 3583 Mt. Lehman Rd., with final approval expected soon.

Mayor Henry Braun recused himself from the discussion at Monday’s public council meeting because his brother owns an adjacent property.

The 80-acre proposal for the Xchange Business Park – located north of Highway 1 and Highstreet shopping centre – is by Hungerford Properties and QuadReal Property Group.
