Serving Maple Ridge from our Langley yard
Maple Ridge is one of the fastest-growing communities in the Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver area, with steady construction and trades activity that makes a commercial licence a genuinely practical career move. We don't have a campus inside Maple Ridge itself, so Maple Ridge students train at our Langley yard — about 20–25 minutes away, give or take traffic.
It's the same instructors, the same ICBC-approved MELT curriculum, and the same trucks that Langley and Surrey students use — nothing about training out of Langley is a "lesser" version of Tricon.
Programs open to Maple Ridge students
Every program Tricon offers is open to Maple Ridge residents — there's no separate "Maple Ridge program," just a short drive to Langley. With construction and trades work steady in and around Maple Ridge, Class 3 and Class 1 are popular starting points, and car lessons remain the most common first step for new drivers.

Most Maple Ridge students come in via the Golden Ears Bridge and Highway 1 — a straightforward drive across the river. If you're weighing whether the commute is worth it, ask any current Maple Ridge student: it's a short trip for a licence that opens up local construction, trucking and delivery work you can work close to home.
