Oak Bay is a small community located on the southern tip of Vancouver Island in British Columbia.

The Victoria-area District of Oak Bay includes Complete Streets approaches in a number of documents. Oak Bay’s city council adopted a Complete Streets policy in June 2012.
Its 2014 Official Community Plan includes a Complete Streets approach for Oak Bay, and commits the pedestrian-friendly district to Complete Streets (p. 127).
In November 2015, Oak Bay released dedicated Complete Streets guidelines in draft form, making it one of the smallest municipalities in Canada with Complete Streets guidelines. Unfortunately, as of August 2017, it appears that the guidelines have yet to be formally adopted by the district, and remain in draft form.
