Two freeways serve Richmond: [[British Columbia Highway 99|Highway 99]], which connects to [[Interstate 5]] at the border with the United States, and [[British Columbia Highway 91|Highway 91]], which connects Delta, New Westminster, and Richmond.

Railway bridges connect Lulu Island to Vancouver, New Westminster, and [[Annacis Island]], and serve the [[Canadian National]] and [[Canadian Pacific Railway]]s, as well as the Southern Railway of British Columbia (although the latter railway's Lulu Island trackage is entirely within Queensborough).
