North Saanich, District of

Published purpose

The District of North Saanich completed an Active Transportation Plan begun in 2020 and endorsed by Council in May 2021. The plan prioritized projects to expand and improve the active transportation network over the next 20 years. Multiple rounds of public engagement identified needs and refined the projects that were included with the plan. The construction of a multi-use path on Lands End Road was the highest priority project based on public support and the improvements it will provide to safety and connectivity. Lands End Road is a two-lane arterial road that crosses the north end of the Saanich Peninsula. It provides a 4.0km connection between BC Ferries at the Patricia Bay Highway and West Saanich Road. The road varies topographically with changes in elevation and sections of steep slope above and below the road.
