The City of Delta invites residents and businesses to share their thoughts on proposed improvements to the Elliott Street Wharf in Ladner Village. Building on feedback collected through last year’s Ladner Village Revitalization engagement program, the City has developed a concept plan to enhance the Wharf’s accessibility, functionality, and recreational opportunities and is now seeking public input.
“Elliott Street Wharf is a natural gathering place where people can enjoy the waterfront and appreciate all that Ladner has to offer,” said Mike Brotherston, Director of Corporate Services. “Through the City’s Ladner Village Revitalization program, we’re looking forward to enhancing the space and are looking for the community’s feedback, including allowing food vendors, boat tours, and fish sales to increase the vibrancy of the Wharf.”
Based on public feedback, the City is proposing the following enhancements:
- A floating dock system for easier kayak launching
- Wharf ramp updates to provide a stable and slip-resistant surface
- Reconfiguration of the Wharfhead to improve parking, recreation, and pedestrian access
- Designating space for potential commercial uses, such as kayak rentals, food trucks, fish sales, and boat tours
Residents can see a plan for the wharf and share their feedback at letstalk.delta.ca/Ladner-Village by Friday, March 21, 2025. Residents are also invited to meet with City staff in person at a community pop-up event on Saturday, March 15, 2025, from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm at the Elliott Street Wharf (5000 Elliott Street).
These upgrades support the vision outlined in the 2025 Ladner Village Revitalization Action Plan, endorsed by Council in October 2024, to create a more vibrant Ladner Village. For more information and updates, visit letstalk.delta.ca/Ladner-Village.
