Promoting and improving pedestrian ways and cycleways

The TASNG project group met and developed some goals to work towards. They were
  1.  To identify and enhance safe and efficient connections for pedestrian and cycleway movements for recreational and commuting purposes within the Toronto Area
  2. To reduce reliance on car use and promote health and well being
Some of the actions that are being worked on are
  • Obtain street mapping
  • Assess and survey problem areas and transpose onto maps
  • Promote public interest in 'cycling 
  • Promote  safe pedestrian options 
  • Provide comment on the Draft Cycleway Strategy 
  • Investigate connections of pedestrian pathways and cycleways to bus and train facilities 
  • Promote child bike education and maintenance
  • Seek relevant funding from Council and Roads and Traffic Authority.
