Investing in established communities

Investing in established communities

Calgary's neighbourhoods are growing and changing. We support this growth by investing in public spaces. These improvements make it possible for both current and new residents to use and enjoy these spaces.

Background

Revitalized public spaces make neighbourhoods better places to live.

The Established Area Growth and Change Strategy invests in places and spaces in neighbourhoods to help meet the needs of each community. 

Through this Strategy, we fund improvements to public spaces in neighbourhoods which are in their renewing stage. We also plan for public space improvements to support a growing and changing Calgary. 

Public space improvement projects

Projects funded through the Strategy fall into three groups:

  • Streetscape improvements: This includes slowing down traffic, adding new sidewalks and pathways, and making intersections safer.
  • Parks and open space improvements: This includes developing and upgrading public parks and adding playgrounds, picnic tables and benches. It also involves making fields better for use.
  • Partnership projects: This includes working with Calgary neighbourhoods and Business Improvements Associations. These projects improve how people move to and from, and spend time in, important neighbourhood spaces like retail areas. These projects improve plazas, community gardens, some playgrounds, and public art.

These projects help people who live or spend time in the area. They make it easier to get around and create comfortable spaces.
