Active transportation investments across British Columbia

Tsleil-Waututh Nation, British Columbia, August 13, 2024 — Six communities in British Columbia will have more active ways for residents to commute after an investment of over $19 million from the federal government, səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation), Community Foundations of Canada, Matsqui First Nation, BC Active Transportation Infrastructure Grants Program, NIȽ TU,O Child and Family Services Society, the District of Peachland, and the City of Vancouver.

Located on the north shore of Burrard Inlet, səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation) will receive funding to support the connection and expansion of their active transportation network. Through the construction of multi-use pathways and sidewalks, as well as a bridge over a creek, the project will play an important role in linking two existing neighborhoods, the established residential community of Raven Woods with the under-development Apex Area, and connecting to broader regional transportation networks.

Other projects across the province include the construction of a multi-use pathway in the Matsqui First Nation, the creation of a one kilometre separate cycling path as part of the Seaside Greenway in Vancouver, and a 2.6 km multi-use pathway that will connect the town of Peachland and the City of West Kelowna. Funding will further support the development of the Sq’éwlets Cultural and Recreational Multi-use Trail and the development of an active transportation plan for the Tsartlip First Nation.
