A page of the City of Vancouver - Like us for stories, events, tips, and more related to walking, cycling, and rolling (skateboarding, scootering, running with your stroller!) around the city!

Vancouver is one of the best cities in the world to get around by bike, on foot, or even by skateboard. We prioritize transportation safety with a model that puts people walking first, and we build amenities that make it a fun, adventurous and safe experience. The City of Vancouver has a vision to make walking and cycling safe, convenient, comfortable and fun for people of all ages and abilities. To achieve this vision, our built environment must encourage walking and cycling. Our goal is that that by 2040, at least 2/3 of all trips will be made by foot, bike and transit. This goal aligns with the Greenest City and Healthy City goals of encouraging people to use active forms of transportation both for sustainability and for personal health. Tell us what you love about getting around the Vancouver way (aka on foot, by bike, or using your skateboard/scooter/etc). Is it seeing the neighbourhood cat? Finding new hidden places in town? Running in to people you haven't seen in awhile?
