Proposal for a massive temporary bike lane network on Regional Roads:
Quote from the doc:
After a review of a full suite of “open street” options, and discussions with area municipality staff, Regional staff are recommending the rapid closure of curb lanes to general traffic to create new temporary dedicated bike lanes or reserved lanes for transit vehicles and cyclists on the following Regional roads:
● King Street/Coronation Boulevard/Dundas Street from Bishop Street to Beverly Street, City of Cambridge;
● Westmount Road from Queen’s Boulevard to University Avenue, Cities of Kitchener and Waterloo;
● Frederick Street from Weber Street to Lancaster Street, Kitchener;
● Erb Street from Westmount Road to Caroline Street, City of Waterloo;
● Erb Street from Peppler Street to Margaret Avenue (one lane only), City of Waterloo; and
● Bridgeport Road, King Street to Margaret Avenue (one lane only), City of Waterloo.
These road-space re-allocations would create 24 kilometres of new temporary bike lanes on Regional roads.
