It promises to be a busy 2020 in Delta. The Optimist is taking a look at 20 significant issues or events that are scheduled to play out in the coming 12 months.

Centennial Beach

The growing popularity of Centennial Beach caused traffic concerns for residents of Boundary Bay on sunny weekends last summer as an overflowing parking lot spilled out onto neighbourhood streets. Last summer’s situation has prompted the City of Delta to implement measures to prevent a repeat in 2020. Delta council has approved several steps recommended by staff, including investigating seasonal parking permit regulations within Boundary Bay and erecting signs informing drivers of “No vehicular access to Boundary Bay beyond this point” at the entrance to Boundary Bay Regional Park and at the intersection of 3rd Avenue and Boundary Bay Road.
