Jan 26, 2023 - Mar 31, 2023
Description:
The City’s Master Transportation Plan was adopted in 2015 and includes a cycling network plan; however, there have been significant advances in accessibility and safety, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic, which have created generational changes in how people move around urban areas. While the City has made significant progress in implementing its active transportation network from the Plan, Council recently unanimously passed a motion directing staff to revisit the network with an All Ages and Abilities (AAA) infrastructure lens, and to develop a plan to aggressively implement a revised city-wide active transportation network using a rapid implementation approach.The plan will develop a safe, comfortable, and connected AAA active transportation network rapid implementation plan, establishing a core network connecting neighbourhoods, commercial districts, civic facilities, schools, and interregional routes.
