Building Great Neighbourhoods - Dunluce

Dunluce has been chosen for Neighbourhood and Alley Renewal. Planning and design is currently underway.

Project update - August 2024

The Project Team continues to work toward the final design for Dunluce Neighbourhood and Alley Renewal. Using City Policies and technical requirements, while considering public engagement feedback, the Project Team is committed to creating a design to bring infrastructure improvements to Dunluce for the next 30 to 50 years.

While the Community Feedback on Draft Design stage of public engagement ended in 2023, you can still review the materials the Project Team presented at that time:

A What We Heard Report summarizing your feedback is now available.

The Project Team will reach out again later in 2024 with an update on the final design.

Local Improvement Options

A Local Improvement is a construction project undertaken near or adjacent to residents’ properties which is considered more beneficial to the property owner and local area than to the City as a whole. These include upgrades to decorative street lights and sidewalks . The community must submit their choice of decorative lighting (colour, pole, arm, and/or luminaire) from the options attached to the City for consideration by May 1, 2024.

Decorative Street Blades

As part of the Dunluce Neighbourhood and Alley Renewal, the community has the option to receive decorative street blades throughout the neighbourhood at no additional cost to property owners.

About the Project

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 Dunluce 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 alley 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.

Working Together to Make the Most out of Your Neighbourhood

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.

Concept Phase

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.

Design Phase

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!
