Happy Anniversary Better South Keys Centre!
A big thank you to everyone who was able to join us for our One-year anniversary meeting last night.

Talking South Keys with RM Transit
Perhaps the most important element of the transformation of South Keys Centre is the OC Transpo O-Train Line 2 expansion project currently underway. While the former Line 2 (“Trillium Line”) ended at Greenboro, after construction is completed next year the line will run to Barrhaven, with several new stations along the way, including at South Keys.
A New Park is Coming to South Keys Centre
If you’ve visited the South Keys Shopping Centre before, it’s likely you didn’t really stop to look around. This is no accident: the existing “big box” retail is designed for you to easily drive to a store, walk in, and walk out without much hassle. Aside from the seasonal patio in front of the Starbucks, you’re unlikely to see anyone gathering or hanging out at South Keys Centre.
Community Bike Ride – postponed until fall
Join us for a short group ride-and-chat to discuss ways to improve pedestrian and cycling connections along the Greenboro Pathway to South Keys Shopping Centre. We’ll ride to the South Keys Transit Station and back with a few stops along the way.
Join us for a Sawmill Creek Cleanup on May 15
n collaboration with Better South Keys Centre, City Stream Watch will be conducting a cleanup in Sawmill Creek at the South Keys Shopping Centre. Participants will help to clean up garbage in the stream and shorelines surrounding Sawmill Creek. We will meet up at the South Keys parking lot by the Kelsey’s Restaurant at 9:00 AM.
