Cycling in Waterloo Region

[Viewfromthe42]

The Iron Horse Trail at Palmer and at Kent is especially horrible. We say we want more bikes to travel more easily and safely, and fewer cars to travel more slowly and safely, and yet at trail crossings in low-traffic neighbourhoods, we put these horrible experiences there for vulnerable road users, and these unnecessarily easy experiences for drivers. Instead of lowering the trail to cross a road and having priority go to the car, the roadway should bump up to match the trail, and give priority to its users.
