A key goal of Sea-to-Sky Highway Improvement Project is to manage traffic flows during construction to minimize disruption and maximize predictability for travellers. Toward that goal, highway closures and traffic delays will be coordinated between the construction segments. Highway closures will be implemented at set times, and publicized well in advance.

In non-closure, "off-peak" periods, construction related traffic delays will be coordinated so that travellers will be delayed a total of no more than 30 minutes on a trip between West Vancouver and Squamish, or between Squamish and Whistler. Travellers will be delayed a total of no more than 45 minutes on a through trip between West Vancouver and Whistler.
