About Guildford Way Transportation Improvements Project

The Guildford Way Transportation Improvements Project is a multi-phase project to make walking, biking, and rolling more enjoyable, improve road safety along a key regional connection in Metro Vancouver’s Tri-Cities area, and help increase transportation choices. Guildford Way is a key corridor within the City of Coquitlam’s shared micromobility operation zone, supporting trips by shared e-bike/e-scooter, and connects to Lafarge Lake-Douglas SkyTrain Station and many other key destinations in Coquitlam.

The first phase was completed in 2023 and upgraded painted bike lanes to 1.5km of protected micromobility infrastructure from the Port Moody border to Johnson Street using “quick-build” concrete curbs to reduce costs and construction times. This first phase won the Infrastructure Project of Year award from HUB Cycling. The second phase between Johnson Street and Pinetree Way was completed earlier this year and added 0.7km of raised micromobility lanes, wider sidewalks, enhanced bus stops, accessibility features, improved street lighting, and the first fully protected intersections in Metro Vancouver’s Tri-Cities.

Presenters

Key staff from the City’s Transportation Division, who will be on this tour, include:

  • Doug McLeod (Director Transportation)
  • Thomas Thivener (Manager Transportation Planning)
  • Tyler Kuny (Manager Transportation Infrastructure)
  • Bernard Tung (Team Lead, Traffic Systems)
  • Anagha Krishnan (Team Lead, Road Safety & Operations)

Networking
