What makes this notable is this part:
Troster said the new bike lanes weren’t halted by recent provincial rules limiting such projects since they won’t remove any traffic lanes.
I guess the secret is to have dedicated parking spots instead of traffic lanes with parking on them!
It’s kinda weird to see a city experience traffic violence, have a vote to mitigate a high risk route, and then have the vote pass unanimously. I feel like it should work that way, but its refreshing to see it happen.
I can assure you it ain’t normal in Ottawa and I am incredibly surprised by it. Beyond happy though because I bike and walk down Gladstone frequently
