In 2013, the Town undertook a first AT plan, now, We hope that this second AT plan will provide more completed and connected AT network consisting of a mix of multi-use pathways, sidewalks, and on-road bicycle facilities. The new plan will:
1. Identify opportunities to expand on the existing trails system, with connections to adjacent municipalities (Shore line trail);
2.Review and identify streets that may incorporate options for alternative travel modes such as cycling lanes and widened sidewalks or trails;
3.Review and develop typical design standards for roadways and AT facilities;
4.Optimize the use of existing infrastructure and identify physical improvements and standards required to accommodate a sustainable AT network;
5.Develop a phased implementation plan of recommended improvements, with cost estimates for the proposed infrastructure improvements within the 5-year planning horizon;
6. Research and develop various policies for traffic calming, stop sign guidelines, travel demand management, and promotion of active transportation;
7.Prepare a final report for the Town including updated mapping and design standards.

The applicant, The City of Burlington (ON) is seeking funding to construct a protected cycling facility along Prospect Street and Graham’s Lane. This corridor is a key part of the City’s spine network in the City’s Draft Cycling Plan. The spine network is defined as a network of connected facilities across Burlington that provides a higher order of protection for cyclists and is intended to be designed towards an all ages and abilities standard. This project would provide for protected cycling facilities along this corridor and improvements to the pedestrian environment. These new facilities and improvements are aligned with the City’s strategic directions: A City that Moves and A Healthy and Greener City.
