Community Engagement - Concept Plan

Community engagement inviting feedback on a draft updated Lougheed Transit Corridor Area Plan (see images below) was open April 9 - May 7, 2025.

Engagement Level

The engagement for phase 1 was at the "consult" level of the International Association for Public Participation's (IAP2) Spectrum of Public Participation and the City of Maple Ridge Engagement Framework. This means that we were obtaining public feedback on analysis, alternatives and/or decisions.

Proposed Land Uses

Background

The Lougheed Transit Corridor extends from the City’s western boundary to the Town Centre at 221 Street along Lougheed Highway and Dewdney Trunk Road.

As a gateway to Maple Ridge and its Town Centre, this area has been identified as a regionally-significant Major Transit Growth Corridor in Metro Vancouver’s Regional Growth Strategy and presents significant opportunities for new housing, shopping, employment, and amenities.

The Lougheed Transit Corridor has also been identified by TransLink as part of the future Langley-Haney Place Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line, helping to improve travel within Maple Ridge and beyond. In January 2025, TransLink announced the selected locations of future BRT stations on Lougheed Highway at 203 Street, 207 Street, Laity Street, and 216 Street.

To guide the use of land and new development surrounding the future BRT stations, an updated concept plan for the Lougheed Transit Corridor was proposed.
