Hello,
I would like to bring to your attention some recent
developments in the Province regarding the release of the Ontario
Cycling Strategy.
The new strategy outlines a number of potential
ideas for making cycling safer in the Province of Ontario, as well as
increasing connectivity to provide new opportunities for cyclists.
As the document is far from a finished product, I
would encourage you to take the time to comment on this proposed
strategy. Feedback on the new strategy is being accepted up until
January 29, and is an important aspect of the drafting
process . This input will help the province to put forward a
new cycling strategy that best meets the needs of Ontarians, and will
be most effective at making cycling safer and more enjoyable in the
Province of Ontario.
The full document, can be viewed at:
The public comment section, as well as additional information on the Cycling Strategy can be found at:
Sincerely,
