Consultation has concluded
In May 2021, Parks Canada established an expert advisory panel and sought their advice to inform the development of a comprehensive people movement plan for Banff National Park. The scope of the work included the management and coordination of access, use and infrastructure at key park destinations in, and adjacent to, the Bow Valley in the park. The panel was asked based upon their expertise, and Indigenous, public, and stakeholder consultation to recommend possible innovative solutions for Parks Canada to consider in the development of a comprehensive people movement plan. The Expert Advisory Panel has now completed its work and submitted a final report to Parks Canada. You can read the final report on the Banff National Park website.
