The City of Edmonton is completing an update to the City’s Access Management Guidelines, initially developed in 2012. Over the past decade, the City of Edmonton’s planning and development processes have evolved to further recognize that the integration of land use and transportation is essential to achieving desired city-building outcomes. The 2023 update strives to align with current City planning direction and incorporate lessons learned over the past 11 years. Bunt & Associates has been collaborating with the City of Edmonton to review the existing guidelines and City standards, conduct jurisdictional scans, identify areas for improvement, and prepare updated access management guidelines. Catherine and Alyssa will discuss the development of the updated Access Management Guidelines, sharing how Bunt and the City balance land access and servicing requirements with consideration for all modes.
Lunch is served at 11:45 am, presentations start at 12:00 pm
