Surrey is the fastest growing city in Metro Vancouver and is on track to surpass the City of Vancouver’s population within a decade. While this is happening, the City of Vancouver is busy updating neighborhood plans and zoning to encourage the construction of new, multi-family housing across the city, particularly on the Cambie Corridor, where it hopes to create 30,000 new housing units by 2041. The extension of SkyTrain from VCC-Clark to Arbutus, scheduled to be complete in 2025, will also spur redevelopment along the Broadway Corridor. There has been some criticism that the recently released Broadway Plan does not go far enough in terms of encouraging the type of density that Vancouver needs to meet its housing shortage.
