The City of Edmonton is hosting public consultations regarding the on-street bike routes they're planning to construct this summer. The first meeting is this Tuesday from 6-8:30pm at Hazeldean School (6715 97 St). Please come out to show your support for cycling infrastructure and find out details about their design & location, and provide your input. The City has already made some improvements based on stakeholder feedback they've been receiving. You can learn about these latest changes, as well, at the meetings. Both meetings will discuss all the planned routes. EBC will be on hand at both meetings to offer an external perspective on the lanes.
Highlights include buffered bike lanes for 106 St, 40 Ave, and 132 Ave, as well as a bike boulevard on 97 St. We have some areas of concern, but are working to address these with the City. If you have concerns of your own, whether as a resident, business owner, or cyclist, please contact us. We are eager to discuss possibilities to help create infrastructure that works well for everyone.
