Neighbourhood Renewal rehabilitates residential roads, replaces street lights, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and adds missing sidewalk links, where possible. Other opportunities to improve how people walk, bike, roll, drive and gather in the neighbourhood, and how they enjoy City-owned parks and open spaces are also explored.
Alley Renewal will be included as part of the Glenwood (163 Street West) neighbourhood reconstruction. Alley Renewal involves alley reconstruction and repaving, improvements to surface drainage where possible, and upgrading of existing alley lighting to LED fixtures. The community will also see work in the alleys to locate underground utilities for design preparation, prior to construction.
A series of public events will be scheduled by the project team which will give residents the opportunity to build a project vision and guiding principles together and provide regular feedback on the different stages of the project including design.
Cost-sharing opportunities will be made available through the local improvement process for sidewalk reconstruction and decorative street light upgrades in the neighbourhood. Arterial roads are not included in the scope of work.
95 Avenue Renewal: Planning and design and public engagement activities are currently underway for the renewal of 95 Avenue. Construction is planned for 2023 and includes changes to 95 Avenue adjacent to Glenwood between 170 Street and 163 Street. Visit the 95 Avenue Renewal project page for details and engagement opportunities.
The Building Great Neighbourhoods project team are genuinely interested guests, stepping into your neighbourhood like a visitor in your home. We want to learn and appreciate how you live and what you value in your community. Through public engagement we will gain an understanding about what you need and value in your neighbourhood.
We seek to involve you in decision making to shape the vision for engagement and neighbourhood improvements. Working together, we can make the most out of your neighbourhood.
We have created a road map to help you and your neighbours understand the steps of the renewal process and how you can participate. At each step we will tell you what the purpose is and how your input will inform the decisions being made. We commit to report back on how we used your input.
The Concept phase is when we need to hear from you the most! We need your help to co-create a vision and guiding principles, explore opportunities, and explore options and tradeoffs. These are the most important pieces for your Neighbourhood Renewal and will be used to create a draft design to best meet your neighbourhood needs.
During the Design phase, we want your input on the refined designs for your neighbourhood. Your feedback will be incorporated into the final design, alongside technical requirements and City policies. These designs were created from the vision and guiding principles we co-created together. You shared your input, we incorporated your feedback, now we build!
During the Build phase, we want to hear your concerns about how construction may affect your private property.
Thank you to everyone who engaged with us on the stage of the project. The survey closed on August 31, 2022 and we appreciate everyone who took the time to provide their feedback.
The feedback gathered will be used to improve the Glenwood neighbourhood.
All additional inquiries or escalations can be directed to the Building Great Neighbourhoods team or by calling 311.
