Overview

Provide your feedback as the Township prepares Langley Events Centre 2040 – a detailed visioning, feasibility study and public engagement process for Township-owned lands at the Langley Events Centre.

LEC 2040 presents an opportunity to advance transit-oriented development in the proposed 200 Street 2040 “Hub” Transit Village at 200 Street and 80 Avenue, and to consider future opportunities to transform these lands into a mixed use Arts, Sports, and Entertainment District, anchored by the existing Langley Events Centre and Willoughby Community Park.

The Langley Events Centre District lands are a part of the 200 Street Corridor, which recently underwent a planning process to draft the 200 Street 2040 plan. The corridor is designated for transit-oriented development by the Province and Township, and will be served by Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). The anticipated BRT station at 80 Avenue will anchor "The Hub” - a walkable urban village complete with housing, businesses, services, public spaces, and recreation. The Langley Events Centre District will be a key destination within the Hub, serving Langley with sports, recreation, cultural, and community events, and attracting tourists and visitors from across the region.

Background

The purpose of LEC 2040 is to establish a vision for the Langley Events Centre District lands, and examine the feasibility of future development scenarios. It will include an analysis of current conditions and constraints of the area, potential urban design directions that align with 200 Street 2040, an outline of activities and amenities that support an Arts, Sports, and Entertainment District, and a high-level market analysis. LEC 2040 will guide consideration of future land use and development opportunities.

LEC 2040 will be undertaken through fall 2024 and will include a process of community and stakeholder engagement.
