City Council needs to know

We're less than 7 days away from the vote on the city's new Cycling Master Plan (CMP).

Although the Burlington Cycling Committee is 100% behind the CMP, Council need to know that the citizens of Burlington support it. They will be voting on a staff recommendation to accept the plan on Wed. June 24, 2009 at the 2pm meeting.
If you support the CMP & can attend the Community and Corporate Services Committee Meeting, please do so. Otherwise, please email your councillor and let them know of your support.


Thanks

  2. A very informative blog Gene. Well done!

    Its a pity that MTO ignores cyclist safety at interchange ramps. The current configuration (westbound Fairview traffic enters QEW southbound through left hand turn at traffic signal) is much safer for cyclists and pedestrians. However, for the MTO and our City Traffic Department, a small delay for a few motorists trumps cyclist and pedestrian safety. Doug Brown
