Why is this corridor being considered?

19 Street provides shops and services that serve West Hillhurst and surrounding communities.

It is also an important walking, biking, and wheeling connection that extends from Kensington Road to Nose Hill Park.

It has been identified on the City's long-term 5A (Always Available for All Ages and Abilities) Network.

It currently doesn't meet the needs of all Calgarians, as the shared lanes feel uncomfortable for children, families, and most folks who are interested in biking and wheeling more often.


What are our goals for this corridor design?

  1. Enhance the look and feel of the streetscape
  2. Improve pedestrian safety
  3. Enhance cycling and wheeling
