What's happeningWater Street Pedestrian Zone pilot returns for summer 2025
In October 2024, Council approved the return of the Water Street Pedestrian Zone pilot in summer 2025 for weekends and special events.
In preparation for the pilot, we continue to work with local businesses, the Gastown Business Improvement Society, and community organizations, as well as partnering with the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations.
Staff are reporting back to Council in February 2025 with further details on the proposed 2025 pilot. Check back soon with more details.
