In March 2019, we launched a planning process to create a comprehensive community plan for the area within Vine Street to Clark Drive and 1st Avenue to 16th Avenue. The Broadway Plan was approved by Vancouver City Council on June 22, 2022 and has been in effect as of September 1, 2022. The 30-year plan focuses on opportunities to integrate new housing, jobs, and amenities around the new Broadway Subway. This webpage provides a one-stop location where you can learn about the Broadway Plan and stay up to date on engagement opportunities.

    The proposed guiding principles for the Broadway Plan were endorsed by Council October 22, setting direction for the creation of the Broadway Plan which will incorporate core community values into future planning in the area.

    Public input played a key role in developing the principles. Between March and September, staff engaged with community members through:

    • 24 public events
    • 12 focused engagement events
    • 3 surveys

    This resulted in more than 10,300 engagement contacts. Community members shared what they value about their neighbourhoods, ideas, interests, and opportunities.

    Phase 2 of work on the Broadway Plan will move forward with developing growth scenarios and emerging directions which will be presented to the public in late 2020. Once a preferred set of directions has been selected and tested with the public, a draft plan will be created and presented to Council for consideration in mid 2021.
