On shared unceded L̓il̓wat7úl and Sḵwx̱wú7mesh territory

Construction project phase: Complete

Location: Cheakamus Crossing

Category: Parks

With the Whistler BMX Club no longer in operation, the RMOW will be taking over and reworking the existing track into a new Community Bike Skills Park for all abilities and ages. This project is meant to be a starting point with a more comprehensive park planning process to come in the future.  

Scope of work 

The existing BMX start mound and turn 1 will be left in place. A series of new dirt jumps and features of green, blue and black difficulty will be constructed by reusing and reshaping the existing material on site. A new dirt pump track will also be constructed adjacent to the dirt jump lines. All work is to be completed inside the existing perimeter fencing and footprint. 

Whistler BMX 

Whistler BMX officially folded in 2024. Whistler BMX is donating the proceeds from the sale of the start ramp, along with tools, equipment and storage facility to this project. 

Whistler Rotary Club 

The RMOW is working with the Whistler Rotary Club in developing a new Rotary Plaza. This could include picnic tables, benches, a bike repair station and storage kiosk where park users can gather, socialize, rest, and spectate. 

BC Hydro 

BC Hydro has generously contributed $7,500 through the BC Hydro’s Community ReGreening program. This will go towards in tree planting in and around the site. 

Status 

The majority of the new dirt jump work was completed in 2025.

Some signage and final work will take place spring 2026 when the ground is dry enough.

Work will continue for 2026 with the addition of an easy green line of features, and mobile skate park features for the remaining asphalt surface.

Funding 

The Bayly Bike Skills Park is funded by the RMOW’s General Capital Reserve Funds.
