Everyone deserves safe and accessible options to get around Vancouver. Today, with the completion of phase one of the Granville Connector project, the Granville Bridge has become a safer place for everyone. We're proud to be tackling Vancouver's infrastructure deficit!
The new Granville Connector is now open! This project was funded by the City Of Vancouver and TransLink. Learn more about this new active transportation link in the video below. 🚲 🛴 🚶♂️ #vanpoli #activetransport
This will be a great change. This intersection on the Arbutus Greenway is a bit awkward for cyclists on the Greenway, as well as pedestrians.
The intersection of West 41st Avenue, Arbutus Greenway, and East and West boulevards in Kerrisdale is set to see a major redesign next year. Improving the RapidBus service and the walking and cycling pathways of the Arbutus Greenway. #vanre #vanpoli dailyhive.com/vancouver/arbu…

Vancouver has become the first city in Canada to ban gun shaped lighters. These lighters have been a source of public distress and erroneous 911 calls, resulting in numerous dangerous encounters for police. This step will save taxpayers money and make Vancouver a safer city.
Today, City Council approved a ban on the sale of gun-shaped lighters, making Vancouver the 1st city in Canada to do so. Facts: ➡️162 incidents in 2024 alone prompted action. ➡️$1,000 fine for businesses selling them. 🔗 Learn more: bit.ly/3GFOLeJ #PublicSafety
Glad this was approved by council today. While it will be hard to stem online sales, or people bringing them into Vancouver, this is a start and will help prevent extremely dangerous interactions between police who must take necessary precautions & the public. #vanpoli

Good news for bars, restaurants & nightclubs! 🍻 Extended liquor hours give small businesses the flexibility they’ve been asking for. 🗣️ Glad to have shared CFIB member feedback with Mayor & Council yesterday. #vanpoli
Yesterday, Vancouver City Council voted to extend allowable liquor service hours across the City (4 AM downtown, 3 AM outside downtown on weekends, 2 AM on weekdays). Extending hours is a common sense move that will give restaurants and nightlife establishments greater…
This is a win for local businesses and a win for creating a more fun and vibrant city. With yesterday's changes, Vancouver will now be home to the latest last call in Canada! #vanpoli
Great news for downtown Vancouver’s hospitality and night life businesses! 🥂 Thank you to Councillor @sarahkirby_yung for bringing forward the successful amendment to expand liquor establishment operating hours to 4 AM in the downtown core, including the Granville…
