Roads

Where do you stand on accommodating active transportation?

Context:

City council has been working to accommodate active transportation modes, including cycling, walking, and rolling. The City Plan calls for more infrastructure for active transportation which could mean sacrificing driving lanes and/or parking. The goal is to increase trips made via active transportation and transit from 23% (in 2020) to 50%.
