What We’ve Heard

Through Phase 1 engagement in the spring of 2021, we heard several main themes about challenges and opportunities for our streets:

• Increased traffic is making us feel frustrated and less safe which is impacting livability for our residents and businesses.
• We want to use our vehicles less often, but other forms of transit are perceived to not be as convenient, efficient, or comfortable.
• Mobility options need to be more affordable and accessible, and the transportation system can still become more equitable.
• The prosperity of our neighbourhoods and businesses depend on our streets, which need to accommodate a range of new uses, while ensuring efficient movement of people and goods.
  
  

What’s in the Draft Mobility Strategy?

Vision

Our vision is to create healthy streets that work for everyone. This vision sits atop the strategy framework as an aspirational guide to the plan, supported by goals and strategies to create a safe, vibrant, low-carbon city that provides plenty of options for people to get around.

Goals

This vision will be achieved through four goals that were supported by our community and stakeholders during the first phase of engagement in the spring of 2021.

• Our streets will help our city prosper and be a vibrant place.
• Our streets will support real and accessible choices for how we move around.
• Our streets will be safe and comfortable.
• Our streets will reduce our impact on climate change and the environment.

Strategies and Actions

To accomplish the vision and goals in the Draft Mobility Strategy, we propose eleven strategies that are supported with actions and sub-actions. These can be read in detail in the Draft Mobility Strategy, but below are some highlights.
