Award recipient (20-minute presentation)

British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Transit: PlanningTogetherBC

PlanningTogetherBC (PTBC) is a collaborative, systems-based approach for the Ministry and its partners to reach a shared vision of smart, coordinated growth by aligning transportation and land use planning. The framework includes four key goals – complete and connected communities, safe and integrated transportation systems, economic competitiveness, and resilience and climate action – and applies the strategic lenses of equity, diversity and inclusion, and reconciliation. As part of PTBC, the Ministry has created a guide, an assessment tool and other resources to help staff and partners make integrated planning a reality. The approach has been applied to policies, programs and projects across the province and at all scales and stages of the planning process; initiatives in Saanich, Kamloops, Central Okanagan and the Fraser Valley are just a few of the successes so far.
