Survey | Project Touch the Water Promenade

The river valley is one of Edmonton’s greatest assets, a place people have been drawn to and gathered for thousands of years. The City of Edmonton is looking to improve access to and within the river valley, creating enhanced opportunities for ecological connections, recreation, celebration, heritage interpretation and social gathering with a project called the Touch the Water Promenade.

An online survey is available and will close on November 22, 2019.

This project will focus on a central stretch of the North Saskatchewan River Valley in two connected areas. One area is adjacent to the Rossdale neighbourhood and the other is upstream on the north shore of the river, along River Valley Road. The Promenade is proposed to extend from Rossdale along the northern bank of the river to Government House Park, west of Groat Road Bridge.

Please note that this project is in early stages of concept development. We are engaging with the public and key stakeholders to help shape the vision for the project and inform the development of concept design options. There will be multiple opportunities for engagement as the project progresses through design, and we will be sure to keep you informed.

The City of Edmonton is committed to transparent communication and engagement, and our project team looks forward to connecting with you. For up-to-date project information, please visit edmonton.ca/touchthewater.

Thank you very much in advance for participating in sharing your voice and shaping our city.
