Active Transportation Network Plan: Seventh Street Corridor

Project Update, July 2025:

Construction of this route is set to begin in August 2025. For construction information and updates, visit this page on the City's main website.

Seventh Street provides a direct north-south connection through Downtown neighbourhoods and the Brow of the Hill. The corridor runs for approximately 1.2 km from Sixth Avenue in Uptown to Agnes Street in downtown New Westminster. This corridor provides a direct connection to the Agnes Greenway as well as connections to Douglas College, the Provincial Law Courts, Royal City Centre and the broader commercial area in Uptown New Westminster.

The corridor is not an existing bicycle route and is located on a local street with steep grades. Seventh Street has street parking on both sides of the street, serving single-detached and multi-detached houses.

The Seventh Street corridor changes will make this route more comfortable for most active transportation users, with less traffic, lower speed vehicles, and traffic separation. This will enable people to move comfortably and safely on foot, bicycle, and other non-motorized wheels and improve safety and connections for pedestrians and cyclists.
