Transportation
Easy and convenient transportation is key to Vancouver's status as one of the world's most livable as well as sustainable cities. Planning and infrastructure investments are paying off as we prioritize walking, biking, transit and goods movement, while attempting to limit single-occupancy vehicle volumes. New bicycle and Greenway networks, easier to access transit, friendlier pedestrian environments and higher density neighbourhoods that favour sustainable public transportation are priorities.
Transportation systems are designed to meet population growth, and land use planning and environmental objectives. The projects and programs highlighted in this section respond to Vancouver's growing transportation needs.
Getting people out of single-occupancy vehicles and into biking, walking and transit is a key way to ensure Vancouver's sustainability. Find out about Greenways and what the City does to promote sustainable transportation choices. Tips on better commuting choices.
Many programs come together to create accessible, quiet neighbourhoods that can be enjoyed by all. Learn what the City is doing to manage and calm traffic, create neighbourhood collector streets, respond to parking concerns and control noise.
We all share the streets as commuters, residents and businesses. Check for information on parking, business uses, safety tips, reporting street light problems and art programs.
