Surrey Transportation Plan

Between June 15 and July 30, 2021, the City is asking citizens to participate in a survey to provide feedback on a draft vision statement, and potential impacts and trade-offs related to four primary indicators (Bold Moves). The draft vision is: Connecting a million people and places with convenient and green transportation choices for all. The four primary indicators are:

1. Put safety first

Value human life above all else in the transportation network by building streets that prioritize safety over the movement of vehicles.

2. Support 15-minute neighbourhoods

Complete the walk and bike networks for all Surrey residents that live within an easy walk or roll of their daily needs.

3. Connect communities with rapid transit

Build a Rapid Transit Network that supports and connects all of Surrey’s communities.

4. Invest in green transportation choices

Strengthen the multi-modal grid by prioritizing walking, cycling and transit before personal vehicles.

The new plan will replace the current transportation strategic plan developed in 2008 and focus on growing the transportation network, tackling the climate crisis, prioritizing safety, balancing equity and leveraging new technology. 

Feedback Wanted

The City is seeking public input on the proposed draft vision, and Bold Moves including potential trade-offs, to help them prioritize key transportation investments over the next 10 years. Take the survey online for your chance to win a $100 gift card.
