Saskatchewan Science Centre. Get to know the City Centre Find out more about ongoing and upcoming
projects and plans that guide the vision for City Centre. The City is making progress on several
projects to support community vibrancy, economic prosperity and safety and well-being in City
Centre. These projects are meant to transform and improve the way people experience the City
Centre, including beautified streetscapes, improved transportation networks and pedestrian safety.
Construction in these areas also addresses important underground infrastructure maintenance and
upgrades to accommodate future growth and enhance the public realm. The goal is to attract more
people to live, work, visit and invest in City Centre. What is next? Click the links below to learn

Big Moves
he City will explore electric or hydrogen-powered options, or renewable diesel as a transition
fuel. Increase active transportation and transit useWalking,
wheeling and cycling are examples of active transportation. Together, transit and active
transportation - along with micromobility like e-bikes and electric scooters – are the building
blocks of sustainable transportation networks. Why? Transportation, including personal and
commercial vehicles, makes up 26 per cent of energy use in Regina. By making it easier for people
of all ages and abilities to move around the city using active transportation, transit, and other
sustainable modes, we can improve health and community wellbeing while reducing the number of motor
vehicles on the road which, in turn, reduces emissions. What’s the plan? The City will introduce
programs and initiatives that improve and expand public transit and active modes of transportation.
An important part of this work will be building safe infrastructure that protects cyclists,
pedestrians, and drivers. What’s the goal? By 2025, transit will account for 25 per cent of trips
within Regina. By 2050, active transportation methods will account for 50 per cent of all short
trips. Leading by example: City employees will be encouraged to use active transportation and
transit for their commute. Active transportation and transit use are already being improved
throughout the community. In 2022, City Council approved the Regina Transit Master Plan which
guides decision making to make transit a primary mode of transportation and to make our community
more accessible and sustainable. The Transportation Master Plan is under review and proposes
dedicated infrastructure for active modes of transportation. The plan will chart a path for
creating strong cycling and walking/wheeling networks and increasing
the number of people using active modes for commuting to work or school as well as for recreation.
Clean and re-energize industry Currently, the industrial sector accounts for one-third of Regina's
emissions. The sector faces some unique challenges but can lower emissions significantly by
improving the energy - efficiency of industrial processes, switching to alternate fuels, and
transforming the products and services the industry provides. Why? Primary industry includes
industries that are involved with extracting natural resources from the earth so they can be turned
into products used by people. Currently, these industries produce significant emissions while also
supporting the community’s economy, for example through employing approximately one percent of
Regina’s labour force. There is an environmental, economic and business case for industry to adapt
and not be left behind. What’s the plan? The sector can lower emissions significantly by improving
the energy- efficiency of industrial processes, switching to alternate fuels like hydrogen and
renewable natural gas, and transforming the products and services the industry provides. What’s the
goal? To increase energy efficiency by 30 per cent and electrify 50 per cent of process heat by
2050. Primary industry will reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Leading by example: The City will
facilitate advancement in this area by hosting working groups, sharing best practices and publicly
showing support for initiatives. The City will bring together industry stakeholders and
low-emissions energy providers to determine pilots and paths forward to decarbonize industry. Get

Parking Permits
fices and other locations for those who have a permit in the front window of their vehicles. People
who have accessible parking permits are unable to walk unassisted
for more than 50 metres. In these situations, individuals and their care providers need larger
parking stalls to load and unload devices such as walkers and wheelchairs. Unobstructed access to
sidewalk ramps is essential. Those who make the decision to illegally park in an accessible parking
stall could face a $220 fine. Failure to pay the fine will result in towing the vehicle to be
impounded. In addition to the fine, applicable towing and storage fees are also applied at the
impound yard. Apply for Parking Placard: If you have a temporary or permanent disability, you can
request a placard through the Saskatchewan Abilities Council to park in reserved parking spots or
parking zones. Purchase Accessible Parking Permit: The City of Regina sells parking permits to
those residents who have a valid Saskatchewan Abilities Council placard at City Hall - 2476
Victoria Avenue between 8 a.m. and 4:45 p.m., Monday to Friday. The permit costs $12.50 per month
or $150 per year and allows you to park up to three hours in paid parking zones without paying
regular parking fees. However, you can only park for 15 minutes in a loading zone. Vehicle
Ownership All applicants are required to provide a driver's licence and prove vehicle ownership by
providing a valid vehicle registration. If the applicant is not the registered owner, but is the
principal operator, the applicant must provide a letter from the registered owner declaring that
the applicant is the principal operator of the vehicle (i.e. a parent owns the vehicle but the
child is the principal operator). An applicant operating an employer-owned vehicle must provide
proof of employment with the business that owns the vehicle (i.e., a letter from the company on
company letterhead). Parking Permit Request Form Permits
