Getting around Downtown

We want to create streets for people who live, work, and visit Downtown.

Downtown should be easy to get to, and easy to get around in. We must design our streets for people first – our streets should be welcoming, safe, and accessible. This will bring our streets to life and create more opportunities to gather on patios or in parks.

CentrePlan 2050 will be the City’s main tool for determining how we experience Downtown over the next 30 years. Our streets are a big part of that and shape how we experience Downtown as pedestrians, cyclists, transit riders, and motorists.

Your input will help us create guidelines for how we design our Downtown streets. We also want your feedback on three key bike routes:

  • St. Mary Avenue and York Avenue
  • Notre Dame Avenue and Cumberland Avenue
  • William Stephenson Way

As part of CentrePlan 2050 we are re-imaging Graham Avenue. Graham Avenue is a Downtown cycling route today and will continue to be in the future as we re-design the street.

    During Phase 1 engagement, we asked for feedback on the five key themes of CentrePlan 2050. You shared feedback about our Downtown streets and design of proposed bike routes.

    What we heard will help to draft goals and actions that will shape how we experience Downtown streets. This includes creating a Streetscape Design Standards Manual. The manual will help plan how our streets will look and function over the long-term. Feedback from Phase 1 will also help to better understand what we need to consider when designing bike routes Downtown.

    Read the Phase 1 public engagement summary and appendices for an overview of what we heard.

    In Phase 2, we will get feedback from Winnipeggers on options for two Downtown bike routes.
