ʔəy̓alməxʷ / Iy̓álmexw / Jericho Lands are within walking distance of significant destinations, including Jericho Beach and the high streets along West 4th Ave and West 10th Ave. The overall site slopes upwards from its low point at the northeast corner to the southwest.
WALKING
The City’s cycling network includes the all ages and abilities (AAA) connection along Point Grey Road, connecting Jericho Beach to other neighbourhoods.
CYCLING
TransLink provides service in the general vicinity through numerous bus routes, including the 99 B-Line, the busiest bus route in Canada or the US. Frequent transit service, every 15 minutes throughout the day, is also provided on 4th and 16th Avenues.
TRANSIT
The street network around ʔəy̓alməxʷ / Iy̓álmexw / Jericho Lands is a developed grid, with major east-west connections along 4th and 10th Avenues, as well as north-south connections on Alma and Blanca Streets. It provides local neighbourhood access as well as service to larger destinations, such as Jericho Beach, Spanish Banks, and UBC.

POTENTIAL SKYTRAIN STATION
v
With the upcoming SkyTrain extension to Arbutus to be completed in 2025, TransLink is studying a potential Millennium Line UBC Extension to better connect the region and meet transit demand all along the Broadway Corridor today and well into the future.
The study will help TransLink confirm the objectives of a potential SkyTrain extension, and evaluate possible route options and station locations.
Millennium Line UBC Extension
Potential Station Locations on the Jericho Lands
The Broadway Subway Project is a direct extension of the existing Millennium Line to a new terminus at Arbutus Street.
Scheduled to open in 2025, the province of British Columbia is delivering this project in partnership with TransLink and the City of Vancouver.
Continuing from VCC–Clark Station on an elevated guideway for 700 metres, the extension will then travel underground along Broadway for 5 km.
The Broadway Subway includes 6 new underground stations. Future investments are anticipated to further extend the Millennium Line beyond Arbutus Street to UBC’s Point Grey campus. Until that time, B-Line bus service will continue between Arbutus Street and UBC.
Construction on the Broadway Subway Project is underway. For more information, please visit broadwaysubway.ca.
Broadway Subway Project
Station location options are being considered to potentially serve the Jericho Lands
site as part of this study. The triangle shaped boundary (in the image on the left)
represents the area on the Jericho Lands site where a station would be technically
feasible, subject to further study and analysis.
The two Conceptual Site Plans illustrate the station at the same location, more central
to the site. This location is within the station feasibility boundary, but is subject to
change as the study continues and decisions are made on the Millennium Line UBC
Extension.

SCHOOLS
ʔəy ̓alməxʷ / y ̓álmexw / Jericho Lands are located within the Queen Mary Elementary and Lord Byng Secondary catchment areas. Seismic upgrades have recently been completed or are under way for both schools.
The City is working with the Vancouver School Board (VSB) to monitor population growth and determine the potential need for new or expanded school facilities to serve the community. The City’s role in planning for school facilities includes land use planning, demographic and population change tracking, and in some cases securing land to support the delivery of new facilities.
For more information on the Vancouver School Board plans visit: www.vsb.bc.ca/disctrict/planning_and_facilities

The site, as well as the neighbourhood surrounding ʔəy ̓alməxʷ / y ̓álmexw / Jericho Lands is also home to a number of independent schools, including West Point Grey Academy.
As the planning process continues, more work will be done to understand the feasibility of incorporating schools into the site as it develops.

Policy Planning Program
JERICHOLANDS
The City provides public amenities as part of redevelopment through Community Amenity Contributions (CACs), Development Cost Levies (DCLs), and Capital Plan investments.
As the ʔəy ̓alməxʷ / y ̓álmexw / Jericho Lands planning process moves into the next phase, we will begin to better understand the potential package of public amenities that will be delivered. The public amenity package is being developed as part of the planning process, which will incorporate public feedback and analysis of existing and planned amenities in close proximity to the site. Public amenities can include childcare centres, community centres, parks and open space, cultural and social facilities, and affordable housing.
Consistent with other recent projects and policy requirements ʔəy ̓alməxʷ / y ̓álmexw / Jericho Lands is expected to deliver a number of amenities, including (but not limited to) those found to your right:
Community Amenities
COMMUNITY AMENITIES Approximately 20 acres of parks and open space is illustrated in the two Conceptual Site Plans.PARKS
+ OPEN SPACE
At least 20% of the units to be provided for social housing, half of which will be designed for families with children.
At least 10% of the units are to be provided for rental housing, with a portion of the units required to be at below market rents.
AFFORDABLEHOUSING
COMMUNITY CENTRE
A new community centre is desirable to support the new community, potential locations are identified in both of the Conceptual Site Plans.
With the increase in residents expected at the site, there will be a need for childcare facilities and programming. As the site design progresses, City staff will determine expected childcare needs and identify suitable locations for new facilities.
CHILDCARE
CULTURAL AND SOCIAL FACILITIES
As planning advances, opportunities for cultural and social facilities will be explored based on input from the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱ wú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations and analysis of neighbourhood needs.
Through your input, an assessment of local needs and discussions with landowners, a preliminary package of public amenities will be presented as part of Phase 4 engagement. Please fill out a Survey to ensure we know what amenities you think are necessary. You can find the Survey at : shapeyourcity.ca/jericho-lands
