Project purpose
The Stanley Park Mobility Study will examine the feasibility of different approaches for reducing vehicle traffic in the park through data collection, analysis and engagement. The project involves transportation planning experts, mobility data specialists, and economic specialists, supported by engagement with Park Stakeholders, and a multi-disciplinary team of Park Board and City of Vancouver staff.
The outcomes of this study will help support and inform future planning work, including the Stanley Park Comprehensive Plan, a long-range plan and 100-year vision for the park currently underway in partnership with Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations. The Mobility Study will also help support many other goals and initiatives in the park through the following:
- Improve mobility patterns and safety throughout the park
- Understand priorities, park visitation pattern changes, and forecast trends
- More effectively manage service levels and resource allocations
- Help in the restoration of forest, wetland, and shoreline habitats and ecosystems and ensure the park's protection, restoration, and resiliency for future generations.
