The Living Streets team is happy to share that this year’s Walktober and Autumn Strolls walks have concluded! Over 50 attendees had the opportunity to connect with their environment and each other across four hours of walking. We’d like to thank SFU's Graduate Student Society, DiwaliFest, and Translink for all the support!

You’re invited to come out and vote on our incoming Directors, hear about our results, challenges and achievements of 2022, alongside our vision for 2023. Some big and exciting changes are coming down the pipe and this is the best place to get a sneak peek at them.

BEST (Better Environmental Sound Transportation) needs your help!

Please welcome to the team Serena You (Board Member), Karen Milde (Director of Marketing and Communications), and Saskia Asyari (Bicycle Valet Manager).

Our free downtown bike parking service Bicycle Valet is now open. It is a convenient and secure parking option for people riding and rolling. operating seven days a week until December 23 with expanded operating hours during summer months, including on Friday and Saturday nights.

Come join us outside for an approximately 1 hour guided walk where you will get to network with other participants and chat about how walking makes you feel connected or anything else. If we are lucky the cherry blossoms will have arrived or we will have to settle with enjoying the spring colors.

The annual WALK30 is back! This competition is getting more exciting year after year. In an oath of a community effort, BEST is coordinating with partners from four different municipalities and two Health Authorities in a five-week campaign. The goal is for participants to walk every day for 5 weeks and track their progress, to see which municipality can walk the most total minutes and win awesome prizes from local businesses too!

We here at Living Streets are thrilled to have a fresh calendar year of fun walking events and opportunities to explore our communities at your own pace.

With age comes new limitations, which can be both physical and cognitive in nature. Physical and cognitive limitations can cause serious problems on the road, while environmental factors also have an impact on one's driving condition.
