    Edmonton’s Exhibition Lands TRANSFORMATION Issues and Opportunities Brief | November 2017 1 Introduction 3 Urban Context 4 Demographics 7 Building Inventory 9 Land Ownership 9 Servicing 11 Vehicle Access and Circulation 13 Pedestrian / Cyclist Access and Circulation 15 Public Transit 17 Major Site Barriers 19 Development Potential 20 Conclusion Appendix A: Background Studies Prepared by City of Edmonton O2 Planning + Design Inc. Introduction This Issues and Opportunities Brief summarizes the technical analyses completed as part of Phase 2 of Edmonton’s Exhibition Lands Transformation (formerly named the Coliseum Station Area Redevelopment Plan). It incorporates the findings from the following project tasks: › Transportation technical analysis › Civil infrastructure technical analysis › Site visits and analysis › Context analysis › Public and stakeholder engagement The summary and discussion provided on the following pages should be supplemented by the more detailed findings of these technical studies, where available, and by the Phase 1 What We Heard Report that describes the results of public engagement to date. The Exhibition Lands project will study the lands centred on the former exhibition grounds located between the Coliseum and Stadium LRT Stations, including the Coliseum arena and EXPO Convention Centre, and the edges of surrounding communities. The study area boundaries (shown on the following pages) have been designed to encompass neighbourhoods with the highest potential for change in the future, and to enable the project to consider transitions and connections between the City lands and existing residential areas, nearby open spaces and the broader transportation network. Note that the project is in a stage of transition, with a focus on creating a more collaborative and transformational vision for the future of the Exhibition Lands.
