Agreement Number:
-
Agreement Value:
$50,000.00
Agreement Date:
Jun 6, 2024 - Mar 31, 2026
Description:
The Verdun Borough aims to adopt best practices in support of active mobility. The borough has already had a Local Mobility Plan (LMP) since 2017. In recent years, however, the area has undergone a major metamorphosis, with urban redevelopment projects, large-scale real estate developments and even cycling projects. In this context, the LDP is already out of date and deserves to be revisited by a Sustainable Mobility Plan, which will integrate the important aspect of active mobility. Active mobility will be the focus of this project.
This plan will identify relevant interventions and ensure that they tie in with the development of the territory. After taking stock of the LDP and other policy documents, the process aims to update the portrait of the situation and issues, and identify courses of action. Priority will be given to areas such as the environment, education, encouraging active mobility, evaluation, planning and equity. The Sustainable Mobility Plan will thus benefit the entire Verdun population and visitors, as well as all local businesses and institutions. Its benefits will be felt in terms of public health, the local economy, the environment and social solidarity.
