Best Routes to School

Walking to school promotes healthy and safe communities and benefits children and families. New Westminster Schools collaborates with New Westminster City, Translink, and HASTe BC to develop best routes to schools.

You will find maps related to your school on individual school websites under Parents > Notices & Information > Best Routes to School.

For a complete list of the maps that indicate safe walking routes to elementary and middle schools in New Westminster follow this link.
(Please note, the above linked maps were created by the City of New Westminster, and they have not yet been updated to include the FW Howay and Skwo:wech boundary change lines that were introduced in 2021.)
