Origin
Summary
Transportation Services is currently developing a ten year plan for expanding and improving the City's cycling network. Once completed, in 2016, the Ten Year Cycling Network Plan will serve as a comprehensive roadmap and workplan, outlining the City's planned investments in cycling infrastructure over 2016-2025. This report provides an overview of the Ten Year Cycling Network Plan process undertaken to-date and identifies the proposed 2016 implementation of this plan, for consideration in the 2016 Capital Budget process. A final report will be submitted to Public Works and Infrastructure Committee in 2016 with options for Ten Year Cycling Network Plan implementation for the remainder of the ten year program.
The Ten Year Cycling Network Plan will build on the City's existing network of cycling routes by identifying potential cycling network projects to fulfill the project mandate:
1. Connect the gaps in our existing Cycling Network;
2. Grow the Cycling Network into new parts of the City; and
3. Renew the existing Cycling Network routes, to improve their quality.
Since November 2014, a significant amount of cycling impact analysis as well as public and stakeholder consultation has been underway for this project. Feasibility assessment and implementation planning is currently underway. Where possible, projects are being identified for coordination with planned capital work.
The 2016 implementation program recommends approximately 41 lane-km of on-street cycling network routes to grow, connect and renew the existing cycling network, as well as the initiation of three major corridor studies. The deliverables recommended in this report represent the outcome of cycling impact analysis, feasibility analysis, capital works coordination and consultation. Transportation Services is continuing to conduct feasibility analysis and consultations regarding these 2016 recommendations.
