TECHNICAL TOURS
Cost: $50 ITE member $75 nonmember
Framed by dramatic topography of the coastal mountains, the CVG winds through some of metro Vancouver’s most beautiful natural areas and vibrant neighborhoods. Tour participants will ride on a portion of the CVG from Vancouver to Burnaby and will have an opportunity to speak to staff from the City of Vancouver and Burnaby and also from Translink about the planning and implementation of the CVG. Helmets and water bottles will be provided.
This tour is limited to 20 participants.
Attendees will get an inside look at these three projects as professionals who are involved with each project will lead the tours with presentations provided on the bus.
Strategically situated along nearly 5 km (3 mi.) of Burrard Inlet, the city of North Vancouver’s Waterfront is both a tremendous location and a gateway to the Lower Mainland and Greater Vancouver region. Staff from the city of North Vancouver will provide an overview and tour of the Waterfront’s major revitalization projects, which includes the waterfront oriented Spirit Trail for pedestrians, cyclists and people with wheeled mobility aids. Participants will also see the transformation of the Pacific Shipyards into a waterfront community and public destination and the development of a land use plan and public open space design for the Foot of Lonsdale, where the city’s main street meets the shore of the Burrard Inlet.
