Road improvements will support greater connectivity in Greater Victoria region

September 9, 2024 at 9:33 am  Federal, Politics

Saanich, September 9, 2024 Roadworks in the Greater Victoria region will soon make it easier for residents to navigate their community after an investment of $20 million from the federal and provincial governments.

Funding will support a variety of road improvements that will facilitate the initial development of the Uptown Mobility Hub, the region’s principal RapidBus node. Works will include the construction of approximately six bus stops and shelters, two of which will be on the Trans-Canada Highway, and dedicated bus lanes. The project will also improve pedestrian safety and active transportation surrounding the node by improving crosswalks and intersections and creating new multi-use pathways to build connections to the adjacent regional trail network.

These works are an important part of the development of the Uptown Mobility Hub and feed into the future transit-oriented development in Saanich that was announced by the province in April. These works will aim to increase housing supply, promote sustainable transportation options, and enhance overall liveability.
