The discussion will emphasize how open data and shared protocols help municipalities align goals, track regional trends, and communicate the impact of active transportation initiatives. The session will offer insight into how collaborative continuous data collection informs infrastructure investment, design, and installation.

Major Street Makeovers: Shelbourne and Sinclair - Fri Oct 30 - 11:15am - 2:30pm Info

Led by representatives from the District of Saanich.

Bring your own device, or borrow an e-bike/e-scooter, courtesy of Evolve.

Participants will be asked to answer a question about their mode of transportation at the Summit following registration, and to sign a waiver on-site.

This guided cycling tour will explore two completed street transformation projects in Saanich: the Shelbourne Street Improvements Project and the Sinclair Road upgrades. Together, these corridors provide an opportunity to examine how major streets can be reconfigured to better support walking, cycling, transit, and vehicle movement, and how different design approaches perform once fully built and in operation.

The tour requires participants to cycle from downtown Victoria to Sinclair Road and back, for a total distance of up to 25 km round trip. Participants should expect to be on their feet and cycling for multiple hours, with several stops for discussion. Portions of the ride may use non protected cycling facilities and shared roadways. This tour is best suited to confident riders who are comfortable cycling in a range of on street conditions.

There, Julian West of Urban Thrive will showcase how electric carsharing and cargo bike parking were successfully integrated into the project.
