Introducing our New Program: Seniors Ride to the Park
In celebration of BC Seniors Week 2026, Seniors on the Move is proud to launch a new initiative in partnership with Vancouver Cycling Without Age that supports independence, confidence, and access to green space for older adults. Seniors Ride to the Park combines guided transit education with joyful outdoor trishaw rides to help seniors stay active and connected.
Meet BEST’s Seniors Transportation Advocacy Committee
Started in 2021 through BEST’s Seniors on the Move program, the Seniors Transportation Advocacy Committee (STAC) brings together older adults and community advocates from across BC to champion safer, more accessible, and more connected transportation systems. Through advocacy, lived experience, and community leadership, STAC helps amplify the voices of older adults while guiding BEST’s work through a seniors lens.
Meet Maggie, a UBC planning student joining BEST Mobility this summer to support Eco-Voyage youth programming. Our Eco-Voyage program helps high school students build confidence using sustainable transportation while learning to navigate their communities safely and independently. In our latest blog, Maggie shares why she’s passionate about safer streets and youth mobility.
Progress on Advocacy
So far this year, we’ve had over a dozen touchpoints with the Province to advance healthy transportation priorities, while bringing together active transportation partners to strengthen our collective voice.
We also recently participated in TransLink’s road safety forum, attended the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade’s Transportation Summit, and supported local government conversations on pedestrian streets and healthy transportation. Now we need your support to keep this work moving forward.
