Greater Vancouver Regional District Transportation Committee Recommendations PDF Download

The Province of British Columbia Strategic Transportation Plan 1990-2000 will determine the best way to direct both public and private resources in building transportation systems. Regional transportation committees were formed in each of the 8 development regions to prepare plans to determine the present and future needs and priorities of each region; to analyze issues and provide support documentation for recommended improvements; and to recommend a plan that included both short and long term directions. All modes of transportation (air, coastal marine, ferry, highways, ports, rail and transit) were considered. The Mainland/Southwest region established 6 sub-committees and a community advisory committee which provided additional comments on the Greater Vancouver transportation study. This document summarizes the findings of the 6 regional district reports, covering Central Fraser Valley, Dewdney-Alouette, Fraser-Cheam, Greater Vancouver, Squamish-Lillooet, and Sunshine Coast. An economic overview is included, and Great Vancouver also covers population and employment forecasts.
