Thank you for your participation in the initial round of engagement! In Phase 2, we developed three visions with conceptual designs based on what we learned from the community during Phase 1.

The St. George Street Improvement Plan is now entering Phase 3. This phase offers the community an opportunity to provide feedback on the three visions. It will also demonstrate how input from the first round of engagement helped shape and inform the draft concepts and designs. This next round of feedback will help us adapt, improve, and refine the Plan, bringing us one step closer to a finalized vision for St. George Street.

These conceptual designs represent a possible future for the street but are not the final plans. The three visions include:


Vision 1: The Community Walk
This vision prioritizes pedestrians and active transportation while creating community spaces and enhancing St. George Street's unique identity.


Vision 2: The Mobility Corridor
This vision establishes the street as a key mobility corridor for the city, promoting active and public transportation.


Vision 3: The St. George Street Trail
This vision redesigns the street to function as an extension of the Northwest Trail, adding recreational opportunities and greenery.


During this phase of engagement, you are not expected to choose your favourite vision out of the three options. Instead, consider these visions as examples of what is possible on the street. Your feedback should detail which aspects of the visions you want to see on St. George Street and which you do not want to see.

How you can participate

  • Public survey: Take the public survey to share your opinion on the visions and comment on what aspects of each vision you want to see or not see on St. George Street.
  • Open House: Join the project team in person on May 29 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at The Arches of St. George (333 St. George St., Moncton). At the open house, you can expect to meet the project team, learn more about the three visions, look at more detailed cross-section designs for the street, and share your feedback.

Project Scope

The project zone spans the entire 1.9 km stretch of St. George Street from Vaughan Harvey Boulevard to King Street. The street hosts a blend of commercial and residential properties, including retail shops, restaurants, apartment buildings, and townhouses.

Background

The 2008 St. George Street Concept Plan created a vision for St. George Street as one of Moncton’s premier destinations, functioning as a dynamic urban hub for both residents and businesses. The 2013 St. George Street Improvement Plan provided a further series of short-term streetscape improvement projects including sidewalks and curb replacements along the street and a series of guidelines to give St. George Street a unique character based on the 2008 conceptual plan. Phase 2 of the Active Transportation Plan, adopted in 2022, recommended a bike lane on St. George Street to connect the street and downtown area to the future citywide active transportation network. A 2023 study evaluated the potential addition of this recommended bike lane within the street’s design, however, it was considered that an overarching vision and concept for the future of St. George should be developed instead. The planned replacement of ageing sewer infrastructure under the street makes this an opportune time to envision the future of St. George Street and plan for above-ground reinstatements that balance the needs of all users for the decades to come.

We're looking at an Improvement Plan to build on previous studies and prepare three redevelopment scenarios for the implementation of a multi-year revitalization project. The scenarios will explore innovative approaches that treat the street as a space for people, as well as accommodate the movement of residents and visitors in the downtown core without using a car. Active transportation will be at the heart of the options for the St. George Improvement Plan, shaping a space where moving on foot, by bike, with mobility-aid devices, by e-scooter and e-bike, or skating and rolling, is the best experience possible.
