A visioning by the UBC Master of Urban Design Class of 2019 set out to organize affordable housing and mobility around the B.C Electric Interurban Rail Line in Fraser Valley. The results are bold and practical. We ask students to add 500,000 dwelling units within a ten minute walk of this rail line, and add an equal number of job sites as well. We asked them to provide a variety of home types to support housing affordability for different family types. We asked them to create urban amenities and to protect and connect natural systems. And we asked them to do this largely within the existing urban footprint of these communities, protecting and enhancing existing productive agricultural lands.
