Overview
Walter Gage Road is shown on the map to the right. It is located in the U Boulevard area and serves a number of campus buildings including student residences, Chancellor Place and the theological colleges. With Pacific Residence, the second phase of Brock Commons and the Arts Student Centre being built along the road over the next 5 years, there is an opportunity to improve the safety and experience of pedestrians along this corridor.
Public Consultation
Participants were invited to provide feedback on options for Walter Gage Road in February 2019, either in person at a public open house or online. There were two public open houses to learn more about the Walter Gage Road project. At this open house, people were also invited to learn about the proposal for Pacific Residences - DP#19001 Pacific Residences.

What We Heard
We heard from the UBC community that there was general support for the proposed design concepts for improving Walter Gage Road. There was also some concern about vehicle access for the hotel operations that happen in the summer.
Next Steps
The ideas and feedback on the proposed improvements to Walter Gage Road are being considered in combination with development proposals in the area.
