In Port Coquitlam joins Highway 7A one, just before crossing the Pitt River meets yet Highway 7B , a connection to Highway 1 to. The highway runs through Maple Ridge to Mission , where Highway 11 branches off south towards Abbotsford and the United States border . Before Agassiz joins Highway 9 of Harrison Hot Springs a Coming. There is a double award for about two kilometers with both highways, then Highway 9 branches off again in a southerly direction.
