The Yukon Community Travel Project explored how and why Yukoners travel by road between communities, the challenges they face, and ideas and opportunities for change.
The project emerged from a growing awareness that gaps in transportation services between communities have a significant impact on Yukoners’ lives and livelihoods.
The project team looked at expert research, case studies and travel data. They also did interviews with key stakeholders and distributed an online survey which hundreds of individuals and organizations completed.
The project was sponsored by the Yukon First Nation Chamber of Commerce. It was initiated in the spring of 2020 and wrapped up in June 2021.
