UPDATE - November 10, 2022

The City of Revelstoke is pleased to provide the DRAFT Transportation Master Plan for the community to review and provide comment. Please direct all comments to TMP@revelstoke.ca by December 1st, 2022.

To access the Draft Transportation Master Plan documents, please click here.


In short, the Transportation Master Plan (TMP) focuses on the future of the City's roadway network which includes driving lanes, parking areas, transit services and stops, cycling routes, sidewalks or roadside paths, and alternative mobility solutions. While the TMP considers the location of off-street trails for connectivity purposes, it does not extend recommendations into park spaces; a separate Parks and Recreation Master Plan update is currently underway which will address trails within park spaces.

Purpose

The purpose of the TMP is to address key transportation issues, meet current community needs, review the viability of outstanding recommendations from previous plans, and propose implementable projects to help the City manage future growth.

Process

The new Transportation Master Plan (TMP) will be informed by the existing TMP (2012), updated population and movement data, best practices for sustainability and climate change, changing community needs, new forms of transportation mobility, and the new Official Community Plan (OCP) which is currently underway.

Project Goals

  • Incorporate feedback received through the Official Community Plan engagement process.
  • Align with the OCP's updated vision and community priorities.
  • Include SMART goals (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-specific).
  • Establish a general road hierarchy to guide the future update of the City's Subdivision, Development, and Servicing Bylaw.
  • Identify implementable projects that will improve the quality of life, safety, and mobility for residents and visitors.
  • Prioritize transportation improvements based on mobility needs and improve connectivity.

    A high-level review of what we heard during this engagement process will be available soon, please check back.

  • Q: How do I see bigger versions of the maps?

    We've heard that the maps in the survey are too small!

    Unfortunately, the survey tool doesn't allow us to include larger images of the maps BUT, we have included links in the survey and on the main page of this site for you to open pdf versions of the maps. Using these links, you will be able to zoom in and see the maps much better.

    Please use the links on the main page (shown under View the Draft Needs Plan Here) and in the survey to view the larger versions of the survey maps.


    Thanks!

    The TMP project has moved into Phase 4: Future Needs Assessment. To get your feedback on the Draft Needs Plan, we will be hosting one online public information session on Tues June 7 from 6-7pm, two in-person public open houses on Tues June 14 from 11am-1pm and 6-8pm at the Revelstoke Community Centre, and an online survey available to complete on the next tab -- open until June 26.

    The Draft Needs Plan is a set of ideas that we need feedback on, there is not a complete 'plan' to view; as such, what is proposed is best understood in the context of the public engagement sessions or within the survey. In the survey, each of the ideas is laid out, you will see what is proposed (the Draft Needs display materials), and be asked to share your thoughts on specific questions about them. If you'd like to view the materials outside of the survey, please click here.

  • Phase 2: Existing Conditions

    Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

    We are now beginning the Existing Conditions phase of the project. During this phase, we will be engaging with stakeholders and the community to:

    • confirm transportation-based priorities we heard during the OCP engagement process,
    • gather feedback about our transportation network’s opportunities and constraints, and
    • identify gaps in the transportation network and areas of transportation safety concern.

    As part of this process, an online information session will be hosted to provide those interested with an overview of the project and opportunities to ask questions in real-time to the project team. The date of this session is tentatively scheduled for late mid-September; final dates will be posted when available. Please check back for more information.

    Over the past few months, the City has been working with our consultant, Stantec Consulting, to kick-off this project by sharing and reviewing existing plans and studies, a range of available data like traffic and collision information, and what we heard about roadways during the OCP’s visioning engagement process. An overview of what we heard is shown to the left and is available for larger viewing here.
