Cycling Network Improvements and Expansion

Study Overview

The Region of Waterloo is looking to convert the temporary cycling facilities introduced through a pilot project in 2019 to permanent facilities, and further expand the cycling network. At this time, the Region is only at the design phase — what kind of cycling facility should be used, what could it look like, how would it function.

In this study, the Region is evaluating options for both the design of permanent installations to replace the temporary separated facilities and the expansion of the Region’s cycling network to create new connections and close some of the gaps in the local and regional active transportation networks.

Virtual meeting — Recorded on September 14, 2022

On September 14, The Region of Waterloo held a Public Consultation Centre about the cycling network expansion. During the meeting, the project team:

• Introduced themselves and provided an overview of the project.
• Explained the process for developing design options for separated cycling facilities along the study area corridors (listed here).
• Outlined design options for separated cycling facilities along the study area corridors.
• Provided an opportunity for members of the public to share their ideas.

The session was recorded, and you can view the recording here, or by clicking the 'Videos" link on the right hand side of this page. You can also review the presentation materials here.
