What's Happening?

The City of New Westminster is developing a Transportation Plan for the Queensborough neighbourhood. Queensborough is a vibrant, growing community in our city. Developing the Transportation Plan is an opportunity to identify and fill the gaps in our transportation network. The Plan will guide the prioritization of how the City spends money on transportation initiatives in the community. The goal is to ensure the safe, sustainable, and accessible movement of people and goods is supported. The Plan will build on existing local and regional plans, including the Queensborough Community Plan and City’s Master Transportation Plan.

The City is committed to developing a transportation network that encourages and prioritizes sustainable transportation, such as walking and riding transit. In alignment with the City’s Seven Bold Steps for Climate Action, strategies and recommendations in the Transportation Plan will help make walking, cycling, and transit in Queensborough more convenient and accessible for residents and visitors.

The Transportation Plan will include strategies, actions, and projects to improve transportation in Queensborough over the short-, medium-, and long-term. It is important we hear from as many community members as possible so that we can prioritize the improvements that are most pressing first. Over the next 12 months, there will be several opportunities for community members to participate in the planning process and provide input, including online and in-person consultation.

How can I engage?

We are keen to hear from everyone who lives, works, and visits Queensborough to understand current transportation patterns and priorities. Your input will help us create a vision for the future of transportation in Queensborough that is sustainable, accessible, and connected! We invite you to use your voice to help us create a plan that reflects how we move today, and how we want to move in the future as we grow. Feedbck was collected through:

  • A community survey on your current transportation habits and experiences in Queensborough.
  • Location-specific feedback was collected by placing a pin on the map. Both of these feedback tools were open through December 4.
  • Transportation staff also held two pop-ups in person on November 24 at the intersenction of Howes St and Ewen Ave, and at Queensborough Community Centre.

The focus for this round of engagement is to understand what’s currently working well and where there are challenges with transportation in Queensborough. Results from these activities will be used by the project team to develop draft themes, strategic directions, and targets for increasing the number of trips made by walking, cycling, and transit that will be included in the Queensborough Transportation Plan.
