Surrey, B.C. – At tonight’s Regular Council Meeting, council will consider awarding a construction contract valued at $33.4 million to Ventana Construction Corporation to build a third ice sheet at the Cloverdale Sport & Ice Complex.

“As Surrey grows, it’s important to ensure that the community’s recreational needs are met for generations to come,” said Mayor Brenda Locke. “The expansion of the Cloverdale Sport & Ice Complex is a direct response to that growth, ensuring that families, athletes, and community groups have access to modern, inclusive, and high-quality recreational spaces.”

The project includes a new NHL-sized ice sheet, seating for over 300 spectators, a multi-purpose room, community space, officials’ rooms, change rooms, and dedicated spaces for junior hockey teams. The expansion also features an energy-efficient design, enhanced accessibility, and an expanded parking lot.

The Cloverdale Sport & Ice Complex opened for the fall recreational programming season earlier this month, with an official grand opening celebration planned for Oct. 25. It currently features two NHL-sized ice sheets and supports a wide range of programming, including ice hockey, figure skating, public skating and dry-floor sports such as lacrosse and ball hockey.

If approved, construction of the third ice sheet is expected to begin this fall, with completion anticipated in fall 2027.
