Cleveland Avenue in Squamish with vehicles driving down the street, pedestrians using sidewalks and a crosswalk, and cyclists travelling down the road.


The District of Squamish is developing a new Transportation Master Plan to identify issues with the current transportation network. It will also plan for future growth, and consider bigger picture outcomes including emissions, community and individual health, neighbourhood connectivity, transportation choice, and equity. All modes of transportation will be considered: walking, cycling, rolling (i.e. skateboard/scooter), taking the bus, driving a car, as well as trucks and commercial transportation.

When the plan is complete the District will have an updated list of recommended transportation infrastructure improvements and a roadmap to complete these capital projects! Input from the community will help us understand how to improve access to different transportation choices by providing:

  • Safe and comfortable active transportation networks for people who walk, wheel, and cycle;
  • An accessible, affordable, and efficient transit system; and
  • Appropriate road network improvements with a focus on safety and connectivity.

Project Update:

Thank you to everyone who participated in the first phase of the District's Transportation Master Plan project. From November 21, 2022 - January 18, 2023 we heard from more than 800 people who shared their transportation experiences and ideas to help develop a safe, efficient, and balanced transportation system that meets the needs of our entire community.

Next Steps:

The project team is reviewing community feedback now. This information will be used to inform the initial recommendations for the new Transportation Master Plan. We will be asking the community for feedback on the initial recommendations later in the process.
