"’I'm down on Stephen Avenue and I wanted to give you an update on what we’re doing to make things safer.
We've opened the new Stephen Avenue Safety Hub, where Calgary Police, Community Standards, Transit Public Safety, and outreach teams are working side by side from one location. That means faster coordination, quicker responses, more visible patrols, and better support for local businesses and people who need help.
We're also increasing lighting, cleaning, and maintenance because the small things matter when it comes to making people feel safe downtown.
At the same time, we've completed the first block of the Stephen Avenue revitalization between Centre Street and 1 Street S.E. So if you're coming downtown, evening and weekend parking at the Harmony Parkade is free through the next year.
These improvements are supporting more than 50 businesses along Stephen Avenue. So if you haven't been downtown in a while, come grab a coffee, have dinner, or check out what's new.
We're making steady progress but we know there’s a lot more to do. We're going to keep investing in safety, supporting local businesses, and making downtown a place where people want to spend their time.
I hope to see you on Stephen Avenue!"
