Bute Greenway
Help us build a shore-to-shore connection
The City of Vancouver is exploring approaches to prioritize Bute Street for walking, biking, and rolling. The future greenway will link vibrant public spaces along Bute Street, including Jim Deva Plaza and Bute-Robson Plaza.
Bute-Robson Plaza
Construction of the permanent Bute-Robson Plaza and adjacent blocks started in summer 2024. You can view the permanent plaza design here (Construction Design, PDF, 4.7MB).
Bute Greenway - North Segment (Eihu Lane to W Pender St).
Staff are evaluating priorities and developing design options for this segment of the greenway. This includes considering connections via Melville Street.
Bute Greenway - Mid Connection (Nelson Park block).
In 2024 and beyond, City staff are working closely with BC Hydro as the West End Sub Station project commences.
Public Engagement
Thank you to everyone who took part in the second phase of public engagement in 2023. You can now read what we heard (Phase 2 Executive Summary, PDF, 2MB).
Please visit this page for future updates and engagement opportunities.
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?
