Southeast Burnaby Bikeway Upgrade Project

Official title: Southeast Bikeway Upgrade Project

Closed Community Planning Environment & Climate Transportation
Burnaby is improving cycling routes in the Southeast Area and Big Bend neighbourhood. The city wants to make biking safer and better connected. Phase 1 engagement is complete, and Phase 2 closed in October 2025. Results are being processed now.

Why This Matters

Bike to work in south Burnaby? This project could make your commute safer. New protected lanes and better connections are on the table. Even if you drive, fewer cars on the road means less traffic for everyone.

What Could Change

New bike lanes, protected cycling routes, and improved connections could be built in the Southeast Area and Big Bend. The city is looking at road widths and existing infrastructure to determine what's possible. Final designs will be shaped by the feedback collected.

Key Issues

  • Where should new cycling infrastructure be built?
  • What types of cycling improvements are needed most?
  • How can the bikeway better serve people of all ages and abilities?
