About the Pedestrian and Sidewalk Master Plan Project

The Pedestrian and Sidewalk Master Plan provides an opportunity to build an inclusive and connected pedestrian network that strengthens the quality of life for our community. Enhancing the pedestrian network also helps to improve connections between other modes, such as transit. The key is to ensure connections are meaningful and provide continuous and direct routes that are safe, comfortable, enjoyable, and navigable for users of all ages and abilities.

The objectives of the Pedestrian and Sidewalk Master Plan are to:

1. Identify barriers to walking and other emerging issues. Develop strategies to address them
2. Recommend new sidewalk locations and missing links within the network
3. Develop a Sidewalk Priority Index with cost estimate
4. Develop pedestrian and sidewalk design standards
5. Develop a implementation and funding plan

    The District of Oak Bay is working to create a Pedestrian and Sidewalk Master Plan to guide the development of our community’s sidewalk network and to identify additional strategies to improve the pedestrian experience for residents, visitors, and people working in Oak Bay.

    This survey is a follow-up to Public Participation Survey #1 from February 2022. Since that time, the project team has worked to understand the key issues identified by the community and key stakeholder groups and now want to understand what types of improvements the community is most supportive of.

    This survey will take approximately 5 minutes to complete and is open until August 24, 2022.
