The City of Vancouver is planning to make it easier and safer to walk, bike and roll along Dunsmuir and Melville Streets. This work will happen between Hornby Street and the Coal Harbour Seawall. It will help connect important routes, including Dunsmuir Street, Hornby Street, Bute Street and the Seaside Greenway.

This project is a key corridor listed in the 2023-2027 Active Mobility Plan. This project aims to boost sustainable travel options and support climate action.

Changes include:

  • A 0.9 km two-way protected bike lane using quick-build materials
  • Intersection and bus stop improvements
  • Parking, loading and pick-up/drop-off area adjustments

Learn more about the proposed design by reading our information boards (PDF, 2.76 MB).
