"COBOURG -- A detailed cycling plan from Sustainable Cobourg, if adopted under Cobourg's Transportation Master Plan, could make Cobourg a cycling destination, its members say.
The two-part, 50-page submission provides an overview, complete with a map, building on existing cycle routes, including the Waterfront Trail.
It includes specific proposals for the following:
* Installation of Share-the-Road signs;
* Conversion of arterial roads using Road Diet design;
* Adding bike lanes;
* Identification of 'hot spots'; and
* Conducting a study for additional bicycle parking,' states the group's document.
'Our proposals are low-cost -- for the most part just signage and paint -- and will transform Cobourg into one of the most cyclable (safe, efficient, from anywhere to anywhere) towns in Ontario, if not North America!'"
