Participate in events, online surveys, and provide feedback as we develop design options for the Arbutus Greenway.
The Arbutus Greenway will be a destination for people from all over Vancouver, and we want your help.
Throughout the planning process, we will keep you informed, listen to public aspirations and concerns, and provide feedback on how public input influenced design options.
Planning the greenway
Projects like this take time, especially with complex engineering requirements and to ensure we have a meaningful public process that brings together all the best ideas from the community.
As part of the planning and design process, the project team had 7,000 touchpoints with members of the public at over 50 events, including a multi-day “charrette” or design workshop, numerous stakeholder workshops, open houses, and online surveys.
Here’s where we've come from.

Future
Post design and construction
Once we complete the master plan for the future Arbutus Greenway, we will begin construction and begin to identify if there are any excess lands along the railway line that will not be used for Arbutus Greenway purposes.
There will be additional opportunities to get involved during each phase of detailed design.
