Answer now Question of the Week 1 Results
We received over 100 responses to our first question. Thank you for taking the time to respond. The highest ranked reason for why public engagement is important to you was: I know more about what is happening in my community.
45 of 107 of you provided other reasons why public engagement is important, including:
- I feel it's important for the City to be telling people in detail what its plans are for major decisions.
- Citizens may have new/different ideas that will save money &/or make the City better.

Back-in, Angled Parking Pilot Survey
The City of Winnipeg is exploring ways to increase available on-street parking in the Exchange District. A pilot project was implemented on Monday, July 24, 2017 to test back-in, angled parking on the south side of Bannatyne Avenue between Rorie Street and Waterfront Drive. During this pilot project, we want to hear about your experiences with back-in, angled parking and other changes on Bannatyne Avenue between Rorie Street and Waterfront Drive.
To provide your feedback on the pilot project, please complete a survey between July 24 and September 25, 2017. For more information, please visit: winnipeg.ca/angledparkingpilot Southeast Corridor Recommended Design Survey
The recommended design for the Southeast Corridor is a neighbourhood greenway that will connect the St. Boniface neighbourhood to the Bishop Grandin Greenway. Please provide additional comments on the recommended neighbourhood greenway design for the Southeast Corridor through a short survey. Further information on feedback provided by citizens throughout this study is available in the public engagement report.
For more information about the recommended design and feedback received to date, please visit winnipeg.ca/walkbikeprojects. Feedback on the recommended design will be accepted until August 1, 2017. Ongoing Opportunities for Engagement with the City of Winnipeg

Eastern Corridor Digital Workshop
The Eastern Corridor Study digital workshop is intended to identify important places in your community and the criteria you feel should be considered when determining the best way to connect Downtown to Eastern Winnipeg. We are excited to hear from you and include your input in the planning and design process.
Idea Wall
The Idea Wall is the best place to share your big, bold ideas for the study. It will be open throughout the project.
Mapping
The Eastern Corridor should connect places that are important to everyone. Nobody knows the community better than the people who spend time in it every day. Use the map to provide information on places that are important to you, features you like and dislike, and any information you feel would help us know more about your community. You can also vote and comment on other people's submissions.
Criteria
The criteria that will be used to develop options, and ultimately to select the recommended route alignment, will be developed with your input. We want to know about all the criteria that you think should be considered when it comes time to evaluate different locations and routes for the corridor.
Additional Study Components
Learn more about the Louise Bridge, Stadacona Street Extension, Marconi Walkway, Nairn Avenue Pedestrian Crossing and the Eastern Transit Garage, and provide your input.

Winnipeg Canoe Club Golf Course Survey
Winnipeggers are being asked to help reimagine the future of the Winnipeg Canoe Club Golf Course.
In April 2019, the current lease of the course to a private operator will expire. The City of Winnipeg is seeking feedback from the public to find out how the space is currently used, and whether or not the public supports another golf course lease, or the creation of a mixed-use recreational space that includes additional services.
Winnipeggers are encouraged to provide input through an online survey. The survey will be open until September 1, 2017.
Later this year, citizens will be encouraged to attend a public workshop to review and refine several different recreational concepts. For more information, please visit: winnipeg.ca/CanoeClub
