  • Viaducts | Information Boards
    THE FUTURE OF VANCOUVER’S VIADUCTS Welcome to our information session on the future of Vancouver’s viaducts. Over the past two years City staff have been testing the replacement of the Georgia and Dunsmuir Viaducts. We’d like to share our findings with you and invite you to share your opinion.

  • Jericho Park Baseline Inventory Report
    Jeri Part 1: Jericho Park Baseline Inventory Report University of British Columbia Masters of Sustainable Forest Management Joanna deMontreuil and Leah Ballin Executive Summary This report is the first of a two part report prepared for the Vancouver Parks Board in partnership with the Department of Forestry at the University of British Columbia. The premises behind the project were to design a baseline inventory methodology for forested parks in Vancouver, and to implement this methodology at one of these parks. Jericho Beach Park was chosen for its proximity to the University, its size, the high potential for restoration and habitat enhancement, and the high level of public investment in the park. Management recommendations based on the findings of this baseline inventory are made in Part 2. Phases of the project included study design, field data collection, data compilation and analysis, limited stakeholder consultation, and formulation of management recommendations. Field data was primarily collected through September and October 2012, and was supported by several site visits made through the winter and into April 2013. The results of the baseline inventory indicate that the vegetation at Jericho Park is largely dominated by non-native species trees and shrubs and aging red alder. Jericho Park has undergone several waves of land disturbance over the past 150 years, resulting in young stands that in some ways are fairly unnatural in composition. The forest at Jericho Park is transitioning from early successional stands dominated by shade intolerant native broadleaf species, to stands of shade tolerant hardwoods dominated by introduced sycamore maple, with smatterings of other exotic species such as horse chestnut and walnut.
