Following an engagement process in June, St. John's City Council implemented a pedestrian-only zone in the “inner gut” as a pilot project over a series of weekends this summer in Quidi Vidi Village. See details in the document library.

Quidi Vidi Village is one of the City’s most picturesque and iconic locations and is naturally a draw for visitors and tourists. The City’s goal with this project is to provide access to this area in a way that is safe and inviting, while still being feasible for those living and working in the neighbourhood.

Residents, businesses, and regular users of the “inner gut” in Quidi Vidi are encouraged to provide feedback on how well the pilot project worked. Residents and businesses in Quidi Vidi will receive direct mail with a link to an online survey. Feedback from the public who travelled throughout the area can also be provided below, by emailing engage@stjohns.ca, or calling 311 to speak to a member of the project team.

Following engagement, Council will be presented with a “What We Heard” document capturing feedback on the pilot project.

  • 2021 Quidi Vidi Pedestrian area pilot survey

    This survey provides an opportunity for those who visited Quidi Vidi during summer 2021 to provide feedback on their experience during the pilot. This survey is not focused on the private enterprise called The Wharf, but rather on the road closures at Barrows Rd., Stones Rd., and Mapleview Pl., and the pedestrian nature of the inner gut between Friday and Sunday each week.

    Consultation has concluded
