Knight Street

Knight Street is a four-to-six lane roadway in Vancouver and Richmond. It is a designated truck route for access to the Port of Vancouver.

From Westminster Highway in Richmond to Marine Drive in Vancouver, it is a 4-lane freeway. As such, Knight Street serves as an alternate way to exit Vancouver southbound, rather than the Granville Street/Oak Street corridor. Upon entering Vancouver, Knight Street provides major access routes to East Vancouver; at 15th Avenue, the road turns into Clark Drive, and runs northbound until it hits the Vancouver Harbour at Burrard Inlet.

Connecting Vancouver to Mitchell Island and Richmond over the Fraser River, the freeway section of Knight Street crosses the Knight Street Bridge. This is the only officially designated freeway in Greater Vancouver that is not also designated as a provincial highway.

The street has become a favourite for street racers in the Vancouver area probably because of its long straight bridge, though the police presence has recently improved to thwart this activity.Fact|date=April 2007
