Bute Greenway
Help us build a shore-to-shore connection
The City of Vancouver is exploring approaches to improve and prioritize Bute Street for walking, cycling, and rolling, with vibrant public spaces for people of all ages and abilities.
As part of this project we are building a permanent Bute-Robson Plaza and enhancing adjacent blocks on Robson Street. The improvements to Robson Street will involve joint efforts with the West End Commercial Streets project.
Thank you to everyone who shared feedback with us in Phase 1 and since the Bute-Robson Plaza was first installed in 2017. Review engagement highlights [PDF, 936KB] and the detailed engagement summary [PDF, 2MB] .

Next steps
Staff will review the feedback and share learnings from second phase of engagement with the community in the summer. In the next phase, based on community feedback staff, will refine and share designs for other selected segments.
The greenway will be implemented in phases, beginning with building a permanent Bute-Robson Plaza and enhancing adjacent blocks in 2024.
Share your ideas for improvement along Eihu Lane to Pender Street
The next phase of the vision development will focus on segment between Eihu Lane and Pender Street where there is the most potential to improve the experience for people walking, cycling and rolling, and create vibrant gathering spaces in this area. Staff are hoping to better understand community needs for this portion of the greenway.
Which design theme(s) and elements would you like to see in blocks between Eihu Lane to Pender Street?
