THE BIG PICTURE

CYPRESS VILLAGE — CONNECTIONS

Trails, Open Spaces, Recreation

Transportation, Road Networks

Transit Connectivity

Formalized trail networks will allow the public to access hiking, biking, bouldering, and other recreation within the Village

Cypress Bowl Road will serve multiple functions with the development of the village

Trail Connectivity and Cypress Village

» New trail networks should serve a range of users

» Trails near the core should be easily accessible

» Larger contiguous open spaces can accommodate

enhancement of advanced hiking and biking trails

» In neighbourhoods, opportunities exist for

realignment and formalization of existing

unsanctioned trails

» Opportunities for sustainable trail maintenance are

being explored

Street Connectivity and Cypress Village

» Cypress Bowl Road is the primary arterial that will

access the Cypress Village

» Maintaining traffic flow to Cypress Mountain is an

important consideration

» Appropriate future street character options for

Cypress Bowl Road is being explored

» The 1000-foot Road Connector to Caulfeild will

allow more east-west movement

» There is also the possibility of an additional

interchange connection to Highway 1 at

Westmount Road, which would provide a

dedicated exit for Cypress Village

Transit connectivity is an important development service for the village

Transit Connectivity and Cypress Village

» TransLink has no current plans to provide transit

service to Cypress Village as there is limited funding

and the area has not been identified as a priority

for service expansion in the Mayors’ Vision or the

North Shore Area Transit Plan (NSATP)

» Transit will be important to the vitality of the

Village and so options will continue to be explored,

collaboratively with TransLink, to bring service to

the area — these may include providing an

independently operated transit service

» Several transit connections that will be studied

further include:

1. Extending existing routes through the Village

2. Creating new routes to Frequent Transit

Networks at Dundarave, Ambleside, & Park

Royal

3. Providing private shuttle service to Cypress

Mountain

Potential rerouting of existing service routes or new route through the Village (concept not currently in NSATP)

TRANSIT

EQUIVALENT TO CURRENT SERVICE » 45- to 60-min. headway at all operating times

» 1 bus per hour at all operating times

*Headways assume 5-7% mode share of total trips

CONVENIENT SERVICE » 20- to 30-minute headway in peak periods

» 2-3 buses per hour in peak periods

*Headways assume 7-10% mode share of total trips

FREQUENT SERVICE » 15-minute headway in peak periods

» 4 buses per hour in peak periods

*Headways assume 10% mode share of total trips

TRANSIT NOTES

These estimates are based an independent analysis of demand at the full build-out population (12-20 years). Research indicates population density is not the sole predictor of potential demand or transit service levels and that other factors, like where a neighbourhood is located or how walkable it is, are also influencers.

TransLink has no current plans to provide transit service to Cypress Village as there is limited funding and the area has not been identified as a priority for service expansion in the Mayors’ Vision or the North Shore Area Transit Plan.

Transit will be important to the vitality of the Village and so options will continue to be explored, collaboratively with TransLink, to bring service to the area — these may include providing an independently operated transit service.
