Building Great Neighbourhoods - Pleasantview

Pleasantview has been chosen for neighbourhood renewal beginning construction in spring 2022 with anticipated completion in 2023.

Project Update - August 2020

Thank you to everyone who engaged with us virtually on the design options for Pleasantview (see engagement summary).

During the online events, the project team presented design options, along with associated benefits and trade-offs, that are being considered for the neighbourhood. These include traffic calming, pedestrian sidewalks and crossings, bike facilities, and design options for parks and open spaces.

The feedback gathered through the questions asked at the events and in our Question and Answer tool, as well as through the online survey, will be used as we move toward the development of a draft design for the neighbourhood.

Proposed Design Options:
Driving and Street Crossings
Biking and Walking, Parks and Open Spaces

About the Project

The Neighbourhood Renewal program will rehabilitate roads, replace street lights, curbs and gutters, repair sidewalks, and connect missing sidewalk links where possible. Other opportunities to improve parks and public spaces will also be explored.

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 and alleys are not included in the scope of work.

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.

Please watch your mailbox for correspondence from Building Great Neighbourhoods and Open Spaces about the Pleasantview Neighbourhood Renewal Project.
