Update: On June 6, 2022, the Park Board approved the adoption of the Skateboard Amenities Strategy (CitySkate) presented by staff. Download the Skateboard Amenities staff report (ext link). Future updates about this project will be available on this page.

Consultation is now complete and we have wrapped up our citywide Skateboard Amenities Strategy called CitySkate. The purpose of Strategy is to shape a long range plan for improving the skateboard facilities within our park system in addition to finding opportunities for skateboarding (and other small wheeled sports) in public spaces within the city.

The Skateboard Amenities Strategy is guided by VanPlay, Vancouver’s Parks and Recreation Services Master Plan, which represents a strong commitment to equitable delivery of excellent parks and recreation opportunities, including improving access to and availability of skateboard amenities.

Over the course of the project, we completed two main phases of public engagement. Phase 1 was completed in June 2021 and results can be found in the documents tab. The Phase 2 survey was live from October 12 - November 8, 2021 and sought feedback on potential skate amenity location across the City.

Results from this survey are available in the documents tab on the right side of this page. The final Strategy and recommendations will be posted later this June 2022.
