Tom Barratt Ltd.

As the original Parks Planner for Whistler, Tom Barratt was responsible for the planning, design, administration and construction of the entire park and Valley Trail system which has become an example other communities and resorts aspire to. 

"It took great foresight," said Whistler Municipal Councillor Gordon McKeever of Barratt's vision and accomplishment. "The Valley Trail is immensely valuable to the community; it's good for public safety, and great for public health."

"Whistler's greenway system offers many examples of best practices in greenway planning, design and management." (from City of Surrey - Greenways Plan - October 2011)

Tom Barratt brings this set of experience to communities endeavouring to improve upon their parks, trails and greenways.

Tom Barratt understands the ability of good park and recreation planning to bolster economic development opportunities and community quality of life.
